Instructions
- 1
Begin by boiling 6–12 eggs in simmering water for 12–14 minutes until fully cooked. Transfer immediately to an ice bath, allow them to cool completely, then peel carefully.
- 2
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks into a bowl.
- 3
Mash the yolks until smooth, then mix in tahini, a small amount of mayonnaise for creaminess, fresh lemon juice, a pinch of ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Blend until the mixture becomes silky and well balanced. Adjust the lemon and tahini to taste—you want a slightly nutty and tangy flavour.
- 4
Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites.
- 5
Finish by sprinkling sumac over the top and garnishing with finely chopped parsley. For an extra authentic touch, drizzle a few drops of good olive oil.
