What to do with leftover Easter eggs

12 years ago

Are leftover Easter eggs taking up space in your
refrigerator? Wondering what to do with them?

Forget about deviled eggs!

I’ve resurrected a couple of recipes
we’ve posted in the past – Teereet (Tirit) and Armenian Potato-Egg Salad. So…go to your fridge, and get cracking!

Teereet: A Kalajian family favorite!

Teereet (Tirit): an Easter-time treat

Technically, you’re supposed to eat Teereet the Saturday night before Easter, but it tastes just as good afterwards, too!

Ingredients:
6 to 8 hard-cooked eggs, peeled, and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 small onion, finely chopped
salt, pepper, allspice, to taste
a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
Gently combine the chopped eggs, parsley, onion and seasonings.Then
drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil, tossing lightly. Cover
and chill until ready to serve. Serve with your favorite chorag recipe.

Armenian Potato-Egg Salad

1 lb. boiled potatoes, peeled, cooled and sliced

4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and roughly chopped

Olive oil, to taste

Directions:

1. Place sliced potatoes and chopped eggs in a large
mixing bowl.

2. Gently toss in the parsley, onion and seasonings.

3. Lightly dress with a little olive oil.

(Note: If you’d like, you can add a little white vinegar
or fresh lemon juice with the olive oil.)

  I only know tirit as Armenian egg salad. Maybe this name is strictly a Dikranagerdtsi thing??
