Shrimp Deviled Eggs

 INGREDIENTS
4    hard-boiled eggs
8    medium, cooked shrimp
1    tablespoon tomato paste
2    tablespoons mayonnaise
      sweet paprika for garnish

METHOD
To hard boil the eggs, place them into a sauce pan with cold water to cover and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, drain and cover with cold water until cold enough to handle.

Remove the tails and any veins from the shrimp and mince them very fine. Place in to a medium bowl and add the tomato paste and mayonnaise. Peel each egg and cut in half length-wise. Remove half of the yolk into the bowl, reserving the remainder. Mix the contents of the bowl, mashing the yolks, and taste. Add salt, pepper or more egg yolk to your taste.

Place a teaspoon sized portion into each egg half, more or less, and sprinkle with paprika. Place onto a serving dish and serve immediately.
