Ingredientes(para 1 large boiled egg per person)

  • 2 Large eggs (Fresh, free-range preferred)
  • 500 ml Water (For boiling)
  • 1/4 tsp Salt (Kala namak or table salt)
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper (Freshly ground or kali mirch)

  • 1/4 tsp Chaat masala (Optional, for Indian twist) - opcional

Instrucciones

  1. 1

    Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Ensure water level is at least 1 inch above eggs.

    2 minutes

    Use room temperature eggs to prevent cracking.

  2. 2

    Bring water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 minutes.

    10 minutes

    For soft yolks, cook for 7 minutes; for fully hard-boiled, 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Remove eggs and immediately transfer to a bowl of cold water. Let them rest for 2-3 minutes.

    3 minutes

    Chilling helps make peeling easier and prevents a grey ring around the yolk.

  4. 4

    Gently crack and peel the eggs. Slice each egg in half lengthwise if desired.

    3 minutes

    Roll eggs on the counter for easier peeling.
