Instructions
Step 1
Remove yolks from hard-cooked eggs and place them in a small bowl. Mash yolks with a fork, stir in ham, walnut oil, thyme, rosemary, and parsley, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon yolk mixture into hard-cooked whites, rounding and smoothing mixture as you go.
Step 2
Heat fat or oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dip stuffed eggs into beaten egg white, then place in pan, stuffed side down, and fry, turning once, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels, transfer to a platter, and serve.
