Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 40 oz vegetable or canola oil
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt, DIVIDED
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder, DIVIDED
  • 1/4 tsp paprika, DIVDED
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 1 cup panko crumbs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp mustard or dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Place eggs in medium sauce pan. Cover eggs with water to an inch over top of eggs. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp baking soda. Bring to a rapid boil. Turn burner off, place lid on pot and let sit for 11 minutes. Remove eggs immediately to an ice water bath to cool eggs completely and stop the cooking process.
  • Peel hard boiled eggs. Cut in half lengthwise. Remove yolks carefully and place yolks into a small bowl. Place egg whites onto a plate.
  • Set up a dredging station with 3 small bowls.
    In 1st bowl combine flour, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp garlic powder, and 1/8 tsp paprika.
    In 2nd bowl whisk 2 eggs together.
    In 3rd bowl place panko crumbs.
  • One at a time, place egg white into 1st bowl of flour and coat lightly. Place egg into egg mixture to coat completely. Place egg into panko crumbs and cover entirely. Place coated egg onto a plate. Finish coating rest of egg whites.
  • In a large pot bring oil to medium high temperature or 350 degrees. Place eggs carefully into hot oil using a slotted spoon. Move egg around until lightly browned and crispy. Takes about 2-3 minutes. Remove eggs to a paper towel covered plate to drain.
  • Mash egg yolks. Then add mayonnaise, mustard, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp garlic powder, and 1/8 tsp paprika. Mix to combine. Spoon or pipe yolk mixture into the center of the fried egg whites. Decorate with a dusting of paprika and enjoy.
