Snip the fresh coriander up in a mug using scissors, add to the potato mixture and mash again
Take the cooled boiled eggs and put them in a tight lidded sandwich box 录 full of cold water. Put the lid on then shake the box so all the shell falls off. Put the clean eggs to one side
Flour your hands then flatten half of the potato mixture over your palm. Now put one of the eggs in the middle and wrap the mashed potato mixture around by closing your fingers around the egg
When completely covered with potato mixture put into the bowl of bread crumbs 鈥搑epeat for the second egg
Roll the covered eggs in the bread crumbs, pushing gently so the crumbs stick. Put each egg into a well-oiled large muffin tin then dab extra oil over the top
Ask a grownup to put into the oven at 200掳C oven for 30 minutes till the outside of the eggs are turning golden brown
Now make the chilli sauce; tip the chopped chilli into the pestle and mortar
Put the spring onion, fresh coriander, the garlic puree and ginger puree into the mortar. Add 2 grinds black pepper
Grind the ingredients together using the pestle until all the ingredients are nicely mashed together (or use a bowl and the end of a rolling pin)
Spoon the mixture into a pretty serving bowl with 3dsp of yoghurt in
Squeeze in the juice of 陆 lemon
Stir it all around. Store in the fridge
Allow the eggs to cool a little before cutting in half and serving 陆 each with the chilli sauce
