- 2 large ripe avocados

- 1 tsp mustard
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- Spring onions (or chives)

- Begin by halving the avocados. Remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a bowl. This takes about 2 minutes.
- Mash the avocados with a fork until creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes. The avocado should have a smooth, even consistency.
- Add 100 g of yogurt and 1 tsp of mustard to the avocado. Stir everything thoroughly until well combined. This takes about 1 minute.
- Now, take 2 of the hard-boiled eggs and roughly mash them with a fork. This should take about 2 minutes.
- Add the mashed eggs to the avocado mixture and gently fold them in. Be careful not to overmix to keep the egg pieces intact. This takes about 1 minute.
- Chop the remaining 4 hard-boiled eggs into small pieces and fold them into the avocado cream. This takes about 2 minutes. Be careful not to crush the eggs.
- Wash the spring onions or chives and slice them finely. This should take about 2 minutes. Then add them to the mixture.
- Season the salad generously with salt and pepper. This may take about 1 minute, depending on taste. Taste the salad to ensure the spices are well distributed.
- Serve the avocado egg salad immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for a short time to intensify the flavors. This takes only about 5-10 minutes.
