Ingredients
Ingredients
large hard-boiled eggs
12 (peeled)
fresh gingerroot
1 inch (peeled and finely grated)
thin scallions
2-3 (finely chopped)
garlic clove
1 (grated)
curry powder

red bell peppers
2 tablespoons (finely chopped)
fresh cilantro

Instructions
1
Begin by cutting the larger ends off the hard-boiled eggs and carefully scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl. If not using an egg carton for serving, you can trim a small slice off the pointed bottoms of the egg whites to help them stand upright on a serving platter.
2
With a fork, break up the egg yolks until they are crumbly. Add the grated ginger, chopped scallions, grated garlic, curry powder, mayonnaise, and season generously with salt and pepper.
3
Using a fork or a hand mixer, blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more mayonnaise if a creamier texture is desired.
4
Once the filling is ready, generously spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites, allowing for some overfilling for a rustic appeal.
5
Garnish each stuffed egg with finely chopped red bell pepper and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro on top for an added touch of color and flavor.
6
Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy the delightful taste of these spiced curry deviled eggs!
