Ingredients to make Eggs in green sauce:

• 6 eggs
• 1 vegetable broth tablet
• 1 sprig of fresh parsley
• 1 glass of white wine
• 1 dessert spoon of cornmeal or cornstarch
• 1 medium spring onion
• 1 pinch of ground pepper
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1 splash of olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves
• 200 milliliters of water or vegetable broth
• 1 pinch of ground turmeric

How to make Eggs in Green Sauce:

1. Boil the eggs until fully cooked. Normally, the cooking time is 12 minutes from the first boil. Once boiled, put them in cold water to peel them better.
2. Trick: Add a dash of vinegar and a pinch of salt to the water. Vinegar is great to avoid that, if an egg is cracked in the water, it does not end up spreading and curdling quickly.
3. Chop the onion into very small pieces and the garlic into slices.
4.  Prepare a saucepan, pour oil and wait for it to get hot enough to poach the garlic and chopped onion.
5. Keep them until you see that it begins to take on a golden color and do not forget to stir.
6. Dilute a spoon full of corn flour in the wine, this will give our sauce a slight consistency but without making it too pasty.
7. You could use any other thickener if you wish and also do without it, since the eggs in green sauce will be delicious just the same.
8. Pour the flour diluted in the wine in the pot; add a light pinch of salt to enhance the flavor of the sauce.
9.  Even if you later add a concentrated bouillon cube, this small amount of salt will not change the recipe at all.
10. Go stirring so that the wine thickens a little with the rest of the ingredients and add the chopped fresh parsley, ground pepper and turmeric and continue stirring slowly.
11. If you don’t have turmeric use food coloring or saffron.
12. Pour the water and let the sauce cook over medium-low heat. If you want the broth to be more abundant, add more water.
13. We put this measurement for the amount of eggs that we are going to use.
14. Add the bouillon cube and stir until completely dissolved.
15. Let the sauce boil for 5 minutes, cover the saucepan and meanwhile peel the eggs and cut them in half.
16. Trick: Remember that you can also make the eggs in green sauce using a cube of meat broth.
17. Once you have the eggs peeled and cut, add them to the saucepan with the green sauce, put the lid back on and cook everything together for 7 minutes over low heat.
18.  In this way, the eggs will be impregnated and will be left with an incredible flavor.
19. Ready! As you can see, this recipe for eggs in green sauce looks delicious and it is not for less, since it is really good! We recommend preparing several slices of bread to dip in the sauce because you won’t be able to resist it.
