Egg salad is my very favorite sandwich — as I have mentioned a time or two. But even favorites need a new twist now and then. I like curry as in this Curried Chicken Salad. Mixing the two together in a Curried Egg Salad seemed the perfect marriage. I happened to have light and fluffy Kaiser rolls from my favorite grocery bake shop. A croissant would be great complement to egg salad, too.
I already had hard boiled eggs. Click the link to find instructions to make the easiest perfect hard boiled eggs. Use older eggs if you keep several dozen on hand as I do. Older eggs will peel much easier than the most recent ones. Mix the dressing first so the flavors can begin to meld. Slice and dice onions and celery, respectively. Stir them into the dressing so they are well distributed. Chop the eggs and mix them in gently. You can let set in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours to develop the flavors, before making and serving sandwiches. Or you can make up sandwiches and savor them right away as a hearty, healthy lunch. This dish can also be dressed up with curly lettuce and mini buns for a luncheon or a tea.
