Don’t ya hate it when your poultry has a secret nest?
I have all these great laying drums set up for my ducks, but for some damn reason half of them prefer to find some nice secret spot in the garden and lay their eggs there every day until I discover it a few weeks later.
This just happened yet again, so we’ve gone from no duck eggs to having well over a dozen that have to get used up pretty quick from not being refrigerated.
So I decided to try out a recipe of my sisters to use them up – her magnificent curried eggs. She makes them that mouthwatering that for years I’ve insisted on a plate of them instead of birthday gifts from her.
While I can’t profess to make them as well as her, I gave it the ol’ college try and they still came out pretty damn good! And it’s a simple recipe so really easy to make. So here is Big Angry Trev’s sisters recipe for Curried Duck Eggs.
Ingredients:
*16 Duck Eggs – boiled
*120gm Butter
*4 tbsp Cream
*2 tsp Curry Powder
*1 tsp Mustard Powder
*Black Pepper
*Paprika
*Chilli Flakes
Method
*Boil the eggs, slice in half and scoop out the yolks.
*Put yolks in a bowl and add butter, cream, curry powder, mustard powder and season with black pepper. Mash.
*Spoon mix back into egg whites.
Seasoning
How you season your eggs is up to you. Typically as the househusband I have to cater to everyone’s particular tastes so I divvy the eggs up into 3 lots.
First lot I put on no seasoning for my kids.
Second lot I put on paprika for my wife.
The third I put on paprika and chilli flakes for myself.
I’ve yet to try them with hot sauce but that’s only a matter of time. But I definitely recommend the paprika, it really makes the flavour pop!
And there ya go, a simple recipe that is an effective way to use up all those extra eggs you find lying around the farm.
