salade oeufs fromage blanc crémeuse (Printer-Friendly Version)

Œufs et fromage blanc pour une garniture riche, légère et onctueuse. Idéal servi avec avocat sur pain ou en wrap.

# What You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 6 large eggs
02 - 1 cup cottage cheese, full fat recommended

→ Seasonings

03 - 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
04 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
05 - 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
06 - 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish

→ To Serve

07 - 4 slices sourdough bread
08 - 1 ripe avocado, sliced

# Step-by-Step Preparation:

01 - Fill a pot with water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Gently lower 6 large eggs into the water using a slotted spoon. Boil for 9 minutes, or cook in an air fryer at 270°F for 12 minutes.
02 - While eggs cook, prepare a large bowl filled with ice and cold water. Immediately transfer cooked eggs to the ice bath to halt cooking and cool for at least 5 minutes.
03 - Gently crack eggs on a hard surface and roll to loosen the shell. Begin peeling from the broad end, rinsing if needed to remove any shell fragments.
04 - In a mixing bowl, roughly mash peeled eggs with a fork to your preferred consistency. Add cottage cheese and blend until creamy and uniform throughout.
05 - Sprinkle in salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika; fold together gently. Stir in sweet pickle relish, mixing just enough to evenly distribute.
06 - Toast sourdough slices to golden brown. Layer sliced avocado across each toast. Top generously with the egg salad mixture and serve immediately.

# Additional Tips:

01 - For best results, let the egg salad rest in the refrigerator for half an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
02 - Choose full fat cottage cheese for an ultra-creamy texture and satisfying richness.
03 - Store egg salad separately from bread and avocado to maintain optimal texture.
