ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteDo you chop up the hard-boiled eggs before simmering the dish, or do you put them in whole to simmer and then slice them when serving?
Simmer the whole eggs, and slice them before serving, if desired.
DeleteThis looks damn delicious....I love the addition of boiled eggs to it...should give a spoonful of different textures when sliced up while serving...will try these :)
