Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Boil the eggs

Place eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 9 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath to cool completely.

2
Peel and halve the eggs

Carefully peel the cooled eggs. Cut each egg in half lengthwise.

3
Remove the yolks

Gently remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Set the whites aside.

4
Make the filling

Mash the yolks with a fork. Add mayonnaise, mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag with corner cut off. Refrigerate until ready to use.

5
Set up breading station

Place flour in a shallow dish. Beat 2 eggs in another shallow dish. Mix breadcrumbs with salt and paprika in a third dish.

6
Bread the egg whites

Pat egg whites dry with paper towels. Dredge each white in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in beaten egg. Coat with seasoned breadcrumbs. Place on a plate.

7
Heat the oil

In a deep skillet or pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor temperature.

8
Fry the egg whites

Carefully add breaded egg whites to hot oil, working in batches. Fry for 30-60 seconds until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels.

9
Fill the fried whites

Allow fried whites to cool slightly. Pipe the reserved yolk mixture into each fried white.

10
