This Egg Salad Sandwich with Curry and Crunch is a delightful twist on the classic egg salad, combining creamy mayonnaise, fragrant curry powder, and crisp celery and green onions for added texture. Perfect for a quick lunch or light dinner, it balances rich flavors with refreshing crunch and is served on your choice of whole grain or white bread.

Ingredients

Egg Salad

  • 6 large hard-boiled eggs
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • ½ cup diced celery
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions

Sandwich Ingredients

  • Lettuce leaves (for serving)
  • 4 slices whole grain or white bread

Instructions

  1. Hard-boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and reduce to a simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the pot from heat and run cold water over the eggs to cool them down quickly before peeling.
  2. Prepare the egg mixture: Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs roughly into a bowl. Add the mayonnaise and curry powder, mixing well until the mixture is creamy and evenly combined.
  3. Add crunch: Gently fold in the diced celery and chopped green onions. This will add both texture and fresh flavor to the creamy egg salad.
  4. Assemble the sandwich: Spread a generous layer of the egg salad evenly over two slices of bread. Add fresh lettuce leaves on top, then place the remaining bread slices to close the sandwiches.
  5. Serve: Cut each sandwich diagonally and serve immediately by itself or with your favorite side dishes.

Notes

  • Use freshly boiled eggs for best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust curry powder according to your spice preference.
  • For a healthier option, use low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt.
  • Whole grain bread adds more fiber and nutrients compared to white bread.
  • Can be prepared a few hours ahead and refrigerated; add lettuce just before serving to keep it crisp.
