I scaled this back to use 2 eggs but as I didn't have peanuts I dry roasted some blanched almonds (I always dry roast nuts either in a pan or in the oven as I feel the natural oils are enough to brown them) and chopped them up and then proceeded to do as per recipe and served on a toasted wholemeal English muffin and WOW what an explosion of flavours in the mouth this was and made a really nice change from a mayo based egg salad.
