Puff The Magic Dragon's Easter Eggs
Ready In: 32 mins
Serves: 3
Ingredients
- 6 dragon's eggs (or hens' eggs if you don't have a dragon's cave in your neighbourhood)
- food coloring, diluted (optional)
- 1 bunch fresh parsley
- 1 bunch fresh coriander
- 1 bunch fresh tarragon
- fresh herb, as desired (but please no marijuana – Puff gave up that stuff in the 1970s)
- 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise
- white wine or grape juice (just enough to thin the mayonnaise a little)
- paprika (to garnish)
Directions
- Hard-boil the eggs (2 hours for dragons eggs, 12 minutes for hens eggs).
- While the eggs are boiling, mix the mayonnaise and wine and put in the fridge to chill.
- Run the cooked eggs under very cold running water until they are cool, and then tap them gently all over (using a hammer for dragons eggs, or a kitchen spoon for hens eggs).
- Carefully remove the shells from the eggs and, if desired, dip them in food colouring.
- The eggs now need a nest if you were unable to steal some of the dragons nest, you can make your own by lining a nice basket or shallow serving bowl with the fresh herbs.
- Place the eggs in the nest and spoon the mayonnaise mixture over them.
- Sprinkle with paprika.
