THE CHICKS' GATHERING (VEGETARIAN SALAD)

EGG COOKING METHOD: HARD BOILED

INGREDIENTS

  • Hard boiled eggs (with shells peeled)

  • Cherry tomatoes

  • Strawberries

  • Blueberries

  • Salad leaves

  • Carrot

 

THE MAKING:

CHICKS

  • Use a knife to "draw" an oval on the surface of egg where the yolk locates and very carefully cut the oval egg white out. The egg yolk will expose as the face of chicks;
  • Cut a thin slice of egg white from the other end of the egg so that the egg could stand up.

COMB

  • Make a V cut on wide end of strawberry, then cut the strawberry into halves (the halved strawberries look like a heart shape);

  • Put the heart shape strawberry on the top of egg by joining them with spaghetti.

BEAK

  • Cut triangles from carrot; slice some carrot from the wide end of triangle carrot as to make it thinner. Then, "plant" the carrot into the chick face (the yolk).

EYES

  • Use chia seeds as the eyes, stick them onto the face (above the beak).

THE HATCHING CHICK

  • Carefully cut the egg into halves WITHOUT cutting the yolk. Remove the yolk.

Tip

Keep stirring the raw eggs while boiling them until the water boils in order to have the yolk stayed in the middle of the hard boiled egg.

  • Make zigzag or triangle cuts along the edge of those halved egg whites;

  • Put back the yolk into the "cracking shells" (the egg white with zigzag cuts);

BEAK

  • Cut triangles from carrot; slice some carrot from the wide end of triangle carrot as to make it thinner. Then, "plant" the carrot into the chick face (the yolk).

EYES

  • Use chia seeds as the eyes, stick them onto the face (above the beak).
