If you have hard-boiled eggs ready at hand, you can whip up this delectable Indian style egg salad in less than five minutes. Prep the ingredients ahead of time and just throw them together at the last minute.
For perfectly hardboiled eggs, cover the eggs with just enough water and bring to a boil. Then remove the pan from the heat and allow the eggs to steep in the hot water for 12 to 14 minutes if you want them hard boiled. Remove and transfer eggs to a bowl with chilled water (and ice) to stop the eggs from overcooking. Peel as soon as they reach room temperature.
While there is a school of thought that says that this easy Indian egg salad recipe can be made up to three days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, we however, prefer our egg salad fresh. And it’s so easy and quick to make, that it does not need to be done in advance.

It also makes a perfect teatime snack with a hot cup of masala tea. It’s also wonderful for a picnic or as a snack for a day trip or a long car ride.
Serve Indian style egg salad as an appetizer as is, or with papdi, toasted pita chips, crispy bread, or whole wheat crackers. Or nestled in a heap of mixed greens and iceberg lettuce. Or have it with Indian tomato soup and garlic bread for a more substantial meal.
While this Indian egg salad recipe hails from the west coast of India, it’s interesting to see the similarity with the Indonesian Gado Gado salad. This could be called a simpler and easier version of that salad.
