Step 1

Add the eggs into a sauce pan, all in a flat layer, fill with water, just enough to barely cover the eggs, heat with a high heat

Step 2

Once it comes to a boil, place a lid on the pan and turn off the heat, let the eggs sit for 10 to 11 minutes to end up with perfectly hard boiled eggs

Step 3

Once the eggs are hard boiled, transfer them into a large bowl with iced water

Step 4

After 1 to 2 minutes and the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them, then transfer them into a cutting board and roughly chop them

Step 5

Add the chopped eggs into a large bowl, along with the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, celery, red onion, garlic, parsley, lemon juice and season with sea salt & black pepper, mix together until well mixed

Step 6

Ligthly toast the slices of sandwich bread, then evenly spread the egg salad over each bottom toast, top off with a dash of paprika, some chopped fresh chives and another piece of toast, enjoy!
