Lil Devils Deviled Eggs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and rinsed
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    1/4 cup mayonnaise
    1 teaspoon mild curry powder
    1/8 cup chopped dill pickles or 1/8 cup capers
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Decorations
    48 capers
    toasted pine nuts
    pimentos
    fresh dill
Preparation
    Slice eggs in half, and remove yolks to a separate bowl.
    Combine mustard, mayonnaise, curry powder and salt with yolks, mashing with the flat end of a large spoon. You may have to adjust mustard and mayonnaise quantities to reflect your taste for moisture of the deviling, and the size of the yolks.
    Mix in the chopped dill pickle or the capers (if necessary, drain them first).
    Stuff the egg white \"boats\" using a spoon. You may stop here and chill in refrigerator until serving, OR you may go on to make the decorated eggs.
    To decorate the Lil Devils: the capers become eyes, the pine nuts and pimento become noses, more pimento for mouths and for devil horns. The dill serves as hair and as beards. Create some Devils as victims, too. Round mouths, the like. Roasted pepper works well as pimento (is really the same thing), just cut or slice it to the shapes you want.
