👨‍🍳 Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the eggs for about 10 minutes until hard.

  2. 2

    Slice the onion and sauté it in a pan with extra virgin olive oil.

  3. 3

    Add the cleaned chicken livers, chopped porcini mushrooms, and diced cooked ham.

  4. 4

    Stir continuously, add the flour, then pour in 750ml of water.

  5. 5

    Cook over medium heat until the mixture becomes thick.

  6. 6

    Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half and add them to the mixture, allowing them to absorb the flavours.

  7. 7

    Serve the eggs hot, garnished with chopped parsley.

💡 Tips and Variations

For an even richer flavour, add a pinch of nutmeg to the mixture. If you prefer a milder taste, replace the chicken livers with button mushrooms.

📦 Storage

  • • Keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • • You can freeze the mixture without the eggs for up to a month.
  • • Reheat in the oven at 160°C for 10 minutes before serving.

🍷 Pairing

Pair Prior's Sicilian Eggs with a good glass of Sciacca Rosso, a still wine with a ruby colour, a vinous aroma, and a slightly tannic taste.
