Equipment

  • Sauce pot
  • Glass jar
  • Sauté pan
  • Spoon
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Eggs hard boiled
  • 1 medium Onion sliced
  • 1 tsp Butter
  • 1 tbsp Goats cheese
  • 3 tbsp Cream cheese
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tsp Hot sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper crushed

Garnish-

  • Hot sauce

Instructions
 

  • We start by boiling our eggs for 10 mins into boiling water. Remove from the heat and crack the shell over the counter. Place the eggs into beetroot juice with the shell. This will stain the eggs. You can do this step ahead of time as the longer you leave them in the juice the darker the stain.
  • Let us caramelized the onions until then, we start by slicing out onions, add butter into the sauté pan and fry the onions with a pinch of salt on medium heat stirring every now and then until it has a deep dark brown color. This will take 10-12 mins.
  • Remove the shells fro the eggs and cut each egg into half (length wise), scoop out the yolks in a bowl and place the whites on a plate.
  • In a mixing bowl add the goats cheese, cream cheese, caramelized onions, salt, pepper, hot sauce and stir until combined. Spoon the mixture back into the egg white cavity and dollop each egg with two dots of hot sauce to create eyes. Serve warm or cold.

Notes

  • I like to cook the eggs for 10 mins. This ensures the yolks are still soft and jammy creating a rich and velvet like filling once mixed with the other ingredients
  • I juice a lot at home hence beetroot juice is homemade here, you could use beetroot powder to make the juice as well.
