Tips & Hints
Add eggs to a saucepan and just cover with tap water. Cook over a medium heat. Once the water reaches a simmer, start a timer for 6 minutes. Gently stir the eggs in a clockwise direction, the movement of the water will help centre the yolks. Use a large spoon to remove the eggs from the saucepan. Cool the eggs by running them under cold tap water for 30-60 seconds or placing them in a bowl of iced water. Peel and halve
Use any nuts available such as walnuts, pinenuts or hazelnuts. Lightly toast in a frying pan or oven
Substitute brown rice with cooked white rice if desired
