Food Fridays on Empty Streets: Egg Salad Sanwich

I just love to eat sandwiches and nothing is tastier than a home made egg salad sandwich and a cool freshly squeezed lemonade to pass the time in this warm tropical region.

Ingredients

* 1 large hard-boiled egg, peeled and chopped
* 1-2 Tbsp mayonnaise (to taste)
* 1 Tbsp chopped green onion
* 2 Tbsp chopped celery
* Curry powder
* Salt
* Pepper
* 1 leaf of lettuce
* 2 slices dark rye bread, toasted

To make hard boiled eggs, place a few eggs in a saucepan, cover with at least an inch of water. Add a half teaspoon of vinegar and some salt to the water (if the shells crack while boiling, the vinegar will help keep the egg in the shell). Cover and bring the water to a boil. As soon as the water is boiling, remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 12 minutes. Drain water, add cold water to cool the eggs, let sit a couple minutes longer.
Method

1 Mash up the chopped egg a bit with a fork. Mix together the chopped hard-boiled egg, mayonnaise, onion and celery. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and curry powder. Mix.

2 If you haven't already, toast your bread slices. Put a layer of lettuce on one slice of toasted bread, spread the egg mixture on top of the lettuce, put another slice of toasted bread on top.

Makes one sandwich.
