Very festive recipe for the holidays or anytime. Rich and wonderful. One of my faves. Don't let the caviar fool you. You can buy at grocery store for under $10.00. (but don't let the guests know!). Serve with flat bread, crackers, or toast points.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion
- 6 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped
- 3 1/2 ounces black caviar
- 3 1/2 ounces red caviar
- 4 green onions
PREPARATION:
In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise. Stir in the onion and chopped egg. Spread the mixture in a shallow baking dish or glass pie plate.
Spoon red and black caviar in a checkerboard pattern over the top. Slice green onions into long thin strips, and use the strips to outline the checkerboard pattern. Chill until serving.
Hard-cooked eggs:Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
