Sriracha Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs are undeniably retro, yet newfangled versions have become ubiquitous on trendy restaurant menus everywhere. Truthfully, I prefer deviled eggs the old-fashioned way – sans crabmeat, truffles, salmon roe, or fill in the blank — but this recipe is the exception. Deviled eggs are named such because the mix-ins are often spicy or hot, so these Sriracha-spiked beauties make perfect sense. They are truly devilish and totally pop-in-your-mouth-able. I’m liberal with the Sriracha but since everyone has a different tolerance to heat, be sure to add it gradually to taste.

How to make sriracha deviled eggs

To begin, place the eggs in a medium saucepan and fill the pan with enough water so that it covers the eggs by about an inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, then remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes. Place the hard-boiled eggs in a bowl of cold water to cool (I usually just use the saucepan).

Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, remove the yolks, and place them in the bowl of a mini food processor. Arrange the whites on a serving platter, gently wiping them clean if necessary. To the yolks, add the mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of the Sriracha, the mustard, the Worcestershire sauce, the salt, the black pepper, and the sugar.

This will make them easier to blend without getting lumps.) Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more Sriracha if necessary.

  • I made these for Christmas Eve, and everyone loved them. Unfortunately I never got to try one because they disappeared so quickly! I used one tbsp. of sriracha.

  • Hi Jen, I’ve made these several times and they are always a huge hit. I’m finding that my filling is always too runny. I pipe it into the eggs and then it sinks into a blob and doesn’t look so beautiful anymore. Do you have any suggestions on how to make it stiffer? I was thinking of maybe adding a bit of cream cheese?

    • Hi Fay, You could try a little cream cheese…but I’m wondering why your filling is runny. It should be pretty stiff, like the photos. Are you making any substitutions? What type of mayo are you using?

      • I’ve used all the same ingredients as you, including Hellmans Mayo, but used Dijon instead of grainy mustard. I also only used 1 tbsp. of Siracha.

        • Considering the fact that really stuck to the recipe, that’s a bit of a head-scratcher; I’m not sure why the yolks would get runny. I do think that adding a bit of cream cheese would help to firm them up a little. I’d love to hear if it helps!

          • I had the same issue, and also used Dijon (bc I already had it on hand). It’s only a teaspoon’s worth, but much runnier than the whole grain in your pictures. Perhaps this is the culprit!

            The flavor on this one is good, but I have to say I do prefer your classic version a bit more. I’ll be trying the new one in your book next! 🙂

  • This recipe is fantastic. I like to put a little Texas Pete in my deviled eggs but the sriracha really adds a nice bite to them. I’ve always liked Dukes mayo too. Thank you for another great recipe!

  • The taste is quite interesting. I’ve always liked to include India style pickle relish along with a hint of curry powder in the yolk mixture. The inclusion of a small amount of dill or jalapeno relish might work as well.

  • Love this recipe! It’s perfect for Easter or parties. The amount of Sriracha was spot on. Love your tips of using piping bag to fill the eggs for the elegant and non-messy presentation! 😀 It was a hit when I serve it at my last gathering. The only thing I substitute was using Japanese instead of regular mago since that’s all I have at home. This is a must try recipe. So good!

  • Just the right amount of heat. I will definitely make these again.

  • It was a snowy and cold few days here in Boston and I wanted to try your recipe.My family LOVED them so much, I made another double batch this week. Your recipe is now trumping my grandmother’s! I haven’t had a fail yet with anything I have made Jenn and as an experienced cook, I still appreciate your well written recipes! Thank you!!!

    • So glad you’re enjoying them!

  • Brought these to a party and everyone liked them. I used 1-1/2 tbsp sriracha, and skipped the Worcestershire and chives since I didn’t have any. I also sprinkled a tiny bit of hot paprika instead of regular for extra kick. A great alternative to plain deviled eggs.

  • I was hesitant to try this because I have never liked exotic deviled eggs. These were outstanding. I used just 1 T of Sriracha. They were really good with just a hint of heat as you finish. Definitely a recipe to add to my repertoire. Thanks Jenn for another fabulous recipe!

  • My husband loves Sriracha, so I was very excited to try this recipe. I let him rate it, so the 5 stars is from him! I thought they were delicious, too. I used 1 tbsp of Sriracha because I don’t like things too spicy and figured he could add more on top of his if he wanted to. The only other comment I have is that my food processor didn’t seem to work very well on the filling. It seemed like there wasn’t enough filling for the blade to get ahold of, so it all went to the edges after one spin. I may try just mixing it by hand next time, instead of having to wash the whole food processor.

    • Just re-read the recipe and realized it says “mini food processor”, so that’s obviously where I went wrong in using my large processor!
