Egg Mayonnaise with Caviar

Serves 2

Ingredients

 1 egg, hard-boiled for 10 minutes
 1 egg yolk (for the mayonnaise)
 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
 Avocado oil (about 120 ml / ½ cup)
 Salt and freshly ground black pepper
 1 tbsp finely chopped chives
1 tbsp caviar
Step 01
Step 02

Start with the mayonnaise. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, a pinch of salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined. Begin adding avocado oil very slowly, a few drops at a time, whisking constantly so it emulsifies. As it thickens, you can add the oil in a thin, steady stream, always whisking, until you have a smooth, thick mayonnaise.

Boil the whole egg for 10 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to cool. Peel and cut in half. Using a piping bag, top each half with a swirl of mayonnaise, then finish with caviar and a sprinkle of chives.
