Puff The Magic Dragon's Easter Eggs

9 ingredients
7 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 dragon's eggs (or hens' eggs if you don't have a dragon's cave in your neighbourhood)
  • food coloring, diluted (optional)
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley
  • 1 bunch fresh coriander
  • 1 bunch fresh tarragon
  • fresh herb, as desired (but please no marijuana Puff gave up that stuff in the 1970s)
  • 12 cup mayonnaise
  • white wine or grape juice (just enough to thin the mayonnaise a little)
  • paprika (to garnish)

Directions

  1. 1
    Hard-boil the eggs (2 hours for dragon's eggs, 12 minutes for hens' eggs).
  2. 2
    While the eggs are boiling, mix the mayonnaise and wine and put in the fridge to chill.
  3. 3
    Run the cooked eggs under very cold running water until they are cool, and then tap them gently all over (using a hammer for dragon's eggs, or a kitchen spoon for hens' eggs).
  4. 4
    Carefully remove the shells from the eggs and, if desired, dip them in food colouring.
  5. 5
    The eggs now need a nest if you were unable to steal some of the dragon's nest, you can make your own by lining a nice basket or shallow serving bowl with the fresh herbs.
  6. 6
    Place the eggs in the nest and spoon the mayonnaise mixture over them.
  7. 7
    Sprinkle with paprika.
