Ingredients

  • 2 avocados pitted and cut in half
  • ½ lb canned crab meat
  • ¼ cup celery minced
  • 1 cup homemade mayonnaise + more to taste
  • Lemon juice to taste
  • 4 eggs hard boiled
  • 4 anchovy fillets rinsed, spine removed and anchovies chopped
  • cup black olives pitted and chopped
  • A small bunch fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoon fresh chives chopped
  • 1 pinch dried tarragon
  • 1 pinch dried chevril
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • For perfect hard boiled eggs, place the eggs in a pot with cold water and gently bring to a boil. When the water boils, cover the pot, turn off the heat and let stand for exactly 7 minutes. After 7 minutes, drain the hot water and rinse with icy cold water for a minute to stop the cooking and prevent a grey ring from forming around the yolk.
    4 eggs
  • When the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them and chop them coarsely.
  • Prepare a dressing by combining 1 cup homemade mayonnaise with the tarragon, chives and chevril. Season the dressing to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
