Cooking time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
· 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled

Method:
1. Roughly chop all (or only 4 if you want some whole eggs for presentation) hard-boiled eggs and transfer to a medium bowl. Mash slightly with a fork to break up yolks.
2. Add mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, celery and chives and mix until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Sprinkle egg salad with paprika.
