Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 120 g (½ cup) Japanese mayonnaise
- salt, to season
- 20 g butter, softened
- 4 thick slices white bread
- 4 thin slices ham
- 4 leaves iceberg lettuce
Instructions
- Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Using a small pin, prick a hole in the base of the eggs. Carefully add to the boiling water and boil for 7½ minutes, stirring slowly for the first minute. Drain the eggs and transfer immediately to a large bowl of iced water and stand until completely cool. Drain and peel the eggs, then slice them in half, separating the yolks and the whites.
- Place the egg yolks and mayonnaise in a bowl and mash with a fork, then stir until smooth. Finely chop the egg whites and stir through the yolk mixture. Season well with salt.
- Butter the bread and layer with the egg mixture, ham and lettuce. Make into a sandwich, cut the crusts off, then cut in half to serve.
