Egg mayonnaise sandwich - some hard boiled eggs, finely chopped up with some chives, salt, pepper and mayonnaise to mix together, and then added between 2 slices of bread, or into a roll etc. Sometimes I add a finely chopped spring onion if the chives in the garden are not at their best. The chopped egg should not be too smashed up - there should be identifiable pieces of egg visible!
Egg salad sandwich - a sliced hard boiled egg, on some lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and a little spring onion, with a little mayonnaise, between 2 slices of fresh bread, or a fresh roll. There is a 'thing' that you place an egg on and press the other part, and you get perfect slices of egg.
Yummy.
