I've not tried these before, but how yummy do they look?!
Ingredients:
5 hard boiled eggs
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
about 2 cups milk
toast
garnish with chives or parsley
Method:
1. Make hard boiled eggs by putting the eggs in a saucepan with cold water to cover. Bring to a full, rolling boil, cover and reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes.
2. Cool eggs by putting them in cold water and change the water frequently.
3. When eggs are cool, peel and cut them in half.
4. Put the yolks in a sieve and push them through the sieve with a spoon into a bowl. That makes the yolks fluffy. Scrape the underside into the bowl, too.
5. Set aside the bowl of fluffy yolks.
6. Coarsely chop the egg whites. The egg whites go into the white sauce.
7. In a saucepan, melt two tablespoons butter over medium heat.
8. Then add 2 tablespoons flour and stir until evenly combined.
9. Let the butter and flour mixture simmer for a few minutes, but you do not let it turn brown, so lower the heat accordingly.
10. Then gradually add the milk, stirring constantly.
11. Add salt and pepper to taste.
12. As the mixture is simmering, it will thicken, so keep stirring. It should have a gravy-like consistency, so add more milk if necessary, then turn the heat down to low.
13. Add the chopped egg whites and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Serve over toast. Sausage or bacon on the side is good. Fresh fruit on the side is good too. Garnish with chopped chives or parsley.
