Welcome to the Polyphagous Dragon!

Hearty greetings from the Rainbow Dragon to all visitors to my digital kitchen in the blogosphere!

As my blog title suggests, these pages contain a wild mix of recipes which sample a wide range of flavours and cultures. I won't even try to apply an over-arching theme to this project other than to say that every dish is about creating good food!

Use the Contents box to search for recipes by dish type, the Blog Archives to search for a specific recipe by title or the Ingredients Index to pull up all recipes that feature a particular ingredient.

Devilled Eggs

Devilled eggs in true, flavourful, Polyphagous Dragon style.
These ain't no church-lady devilled eggs!

Ingredients:
  • 5 large eggs, hardboiled, cooled & peeled
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
  • 4 teaspoons HOT Caribbean style sauce (such as "Jamaica Hell Fire" or "Susie's Calypso")
  • 1 teaspoon hot curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil

Directions:

Cut eggs in half lengthwise and scoop out the yolks.
Mash yolks with a fork and mix with mayo, hot sauce, basil and spices.
Spoon (or pipe from a bag) yolk mixture back into wells in egg whites.
Serve chilled. (Just not at your church luncheon -- unless the attendees have been suitably warned!)
