Creole Deviled Eggs
These devilled eggs offer a Creole-inspired variation on the traditional starter. Hard-boiled egg yolks are blended with mayonnaise, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and ground red pepper to create a smooth, flavourful base. Fresh chives, parsley, and finely chopped red bell pepper are then incorporated for colour and texture. The creamy mixture is spooned back into the egg white halves and finished with a dusting of red pepper for a vibrant presentation.
