Egg-Dill Sandwiches

Perfect Sunday breakfast

Mustard Mayo sandwiches in Assam Mess were very famous. They used to be the breakfast on the go if anyone was travelling or going for jungle picnics. What used to amaze me was that the head cook used to make the mayo by hand despite the bulk quantity.

Over the years, I have kept the base recipe as same but trying new dressing ingredients. The version here is using fresh Dill from dad’s kitchen garden. Besides using dill in Mediterranean cooking this is one of the places where I cherish Dill’s strong aromatic flavor.

Notes
