Description

Gulls’ eggs are such a delicacy, and one with a very short season. Eat them while you can! They are uniquely rich, and when soft boiled like this are lovely served with some mayonnaise and celery salt for a decadent starter or snack. 

  1. Bring a pan of water to the boil and gently lower the eggs into it. Cook for 3.5 minutes, then plunge into a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process.
  2. Combine the lemon juice and olive oil with some salt and pepper in a clean lidded jar or bowl and shake or whisk to combine. Use the dressing to dress the watercress.
  3. Combine the celery salt and paprika and mix well.
  4. Peel the shells of the eggs - we like to do this half way to show some of the attractive shells.
  5. Serve with the mayonnaise, salad and celery salt.
