There are so many different fillings for stuffed eggs - sometimes you just get confused and don’t know what to choose. Considering that this appetizer is one of my favorites, I cook it quite often, and I try to try new recipes every time. My latest experiment was very successful, so I am happy to share the result with you. Meet eggs with red caviar and cheese, very tender, very beautiful and no less tasty.
This appetizer will be especially appropriate for a festive feast, because it is an excellent alternative to banal sandwiches with red caviar. Eggs stuffed with caviar will be good on any occasion - be it New Year, March 8, birthday or just friendly get-togethers. They are very simple to prepare, so you will certainly succeed in the best possible way. Shall we get started?
Ingredients:
- 5 chicken eggs;
- 50-70 g hard cheese;
- mayonnaise (preferably homemade);
- salt, black pepper to taste;
- 70-80 g red caviar;
- Greens for decoration.
How to cook eggs stuffed with caviar:
Boil the eggs hard - that is, cook them in boiling water for 10 minutes: during this time, both the white and the yolk will become hard. Carefully peel the eggs, being careful not to damage the surface of the white.
Three hard cheeses on a medium grater.
Cut the eggs into halves and remove the yolks. Add grated hard cheese and mayonnaise to the yolks. There shouldn’t be too much sauce, we need to get a mass that will hold its shape well. Therefore, do not add a large amount of mayonnaise at once; it is better to add the required amount later. I usually use a little less than 1 tbsp. spoons.
Stir, add salt and black pepper to taste. Don’t overdo it, remember that we will also use caviar for the eggs, and it is also quite salty.
Fill the egg white halves with the cheese and yolk mixture. At the same time, you shouldn’t make too big a mound, as you usually do with stuffed eggs, because we still need to add the caviar.
Thirdly, it is convenient and compact to place such a snack on the table. It is easy and quick to prepare, its appearance attracts the attention of guests and stimulates the appetite. Let's focus on the simplest, most delicious and nutritious option.
Recipe for chicken eggs stuffed with red caviar
(but you can also stuff quail)
Ingredients:
- chicken eggs,
- red granular caviar,
- a little fresh dill for the filling,
- two or three green onions for serving,
- mayonnaise,
- ground black pepper.
Preparation:
1. To boil hard-boiled eggs, remove them from the refrigerator in advance, rinse thoroughly under warm running water (there are dirty spots on homemade eggs, rub them with salt to clean them). Boil water, dip the eggs into it, it is better to do this with a spoon or slotted spoon. Lightly salt the water in which the eggs are boiled to prevent the shell from breaking. Cook for 8-10 minutes. Then quickly transfer them to cold water. The heat from the eggs will be transferred to the water, so change it to cold water several times. This simple process will allow you to easily peel the eggs later.
2. Cut boiled and peeled eggs along their entire length into two equal halves. Set the whites aside for now, and place the yolks in a separate bowl.
3. Chop the fresh dill very finely. Using a fork, mash the egg yolks, add dill to them, add mayonnaise, sprinkle with ground black pepper to your taste and mix well. Regulate the amount of mayonnaise yourself - the main thing is that the mass is of medium thickness (not liquid, otherwise it will spread, and not very dense, then it will be inconvenient to fill egg whites with it).
4. Fill the egg halves with the resulting mixture. You can do this with a teaspoon. 
If you want to give your stuffed eggs more sophistication and a festive look, use a pastry syringe or a pastry bag with a shaped nozzle. Pipe the filling in an original pattern into the indentations of the egg whites.
5. Arrange the eggs beautifully on top, decorate everything with a sprig of fresh dill or sprinkle with chopped green onions.
6. Place the finished eggs stuffed with red caviar on a large festive dish, decorated with fresh lettuce leaves. Just imagine how attractive and seductive it will look due to the bright riot of colors.
Adviсe:
- so that the egg halves do not roll around on the dish, but stand straight, trim their bottoms a little;
- so that the caviar does not stick to the spoon and lies well on the stuffed egg, before scooping it from the jar, wet the spoon in cool water each time;
- Both eggs and red caviar are nutritious protein foods. Therefore, during a holiday feast, serve this appetizer first, but do not cook it a lot. Based on the calculation - two stuffed egg halves for each guest (after all, there is still a whole holiday ahead and there are so many delicious temptations).

A recipe variation worth trying!
Stuffed eggs with red caviar is an appetizer that is served in our house on my mother’s birthday, as it seemed to me almost all my life. True, this year it turned out that it wasn’t that long, but still 18 years. I can almost remember when it was a surprise and an element of luxury. Then it became a subject of jokes, now it’s probably already a tradition. Its presence on the menu for mother’s birthday is considered mandatory and is not discussed.
For about 7 years, my mother regularly tells the story of how one of her friends decided to make eggs with red caviar and was surprised that they didn’t turn out so tasty. It turns out that she simply cut the eggs and spread caviar on top. This story initially slightly surprised me; it seemed that everyone knew how to cook eggs.
While preparing this snack for my mother’s birthday this year, I decided to take a photo to post it on the website. My daughter asked in surprise, do I really think that there are people who don’t know how to cook eggs stuffed with red caviar? I reminded my grandmother of a story about her friend (this is probably also a family story now)).
Eggs with red caviar, stuffed, nuances:
While posting this recipe, I looked through the Internet and, to my surprise, discovered that people mix the yolk with everything, but almost all of them have mayonnaise, but no butter. So, I strongly recommend that you try it with butter. It’s not for nothing that it’s customary to spread butter under the caviar on sandwiches. Caviar, if it is really tasty, only requires that it be highlighted favorably and served beautifully)).
