How to make the stuffed eggs

1. The recipe is very simple. First cook the eggs for 8 minutes in boiling water. Once cooked, put them in cold water and peel them. Cut them in half and set the yolks aside.
2. In a bowl, add 3 yolks and mash them with a fork. Then add the mackerel, ketchup, Lea Perrins sauce as well as the gherkins and spring onions. These must be very finely chopped.
3. Now add mayonnaise to taste, but do not overdo it either. The best thing to do is to add until the mixture is well mixed.
4. All that remains is to fill the eggs. Lastly, cover each half with mayonnaise and grate the other three yolks on top for an elegant touch. And that’s it!
