Gather @egg{6} and @fresh cilantro{2%tbsp}.

Boil the eggs 10 minutes to a firm set, then cool in cold water and peel. ~{10%minutes}

Mash the eggs roughly with a fork, keeping some texture rather than a smooth paste.

Mix in the @onion{0.5}, @green chili{2}, @mustard oil{2%tbsp} and cilantro.

Squeeze in the @lemon{0.5} juice, season with @salt{}, and taste for the balance of sharp, salty and hot.

Rest 5 minutes so the raw onion mellows slightly, then serve at room temperature with hot rice. ~{5%minutes}
