About the dish

This classic British favorite is a sandwich consisting of bread slices filled with mayonnaise, chopped and mashed hard-boiled eggs, and garden cress. The sandwiches are typically cut into triangles and arranged on a platter. It is recommended to garnish them with leftover cress and serve them with a cup of tea on the side, since these sandwiches are traditionally a part of the famous British Afternoon tea .
