The following recipe has been tested and edited by SBS Food and may differ slightly from the podcast.

Instructions

Fill a saucepan with water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to boil gently. Add eggs and cook for 8 minutes, or until hard boiled. Crack the shells by rolling firmly on a bench, then run the eggs under cold water while removing the shells.

Slice in half lengthways with a clean sharp knife and carefully remove yolk. Combine yolks in a food processor with butter and mayonnaise, season with Dutch curry powder and salt, process until smooth. Transfer to a piping bag with a fluted nozzle, and pipe in a circular motion to make rosettes to fill the egg whites.

Dust with paprika and serve at room temperature.
