While the eggs are standing, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with cold water and ice cubes. Once the time is up, use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to the ice bath. Let them cool for 5 minutes.
Gently crack the cooled eggs and peel them. The ice bath makes them easier to peel. Pat the peeled eggs dry with a paper towel.
In a mixing bowl, place the peeled eggs and mash them with a fork. Aim for a coarse, slightly chunky texture rather than a smooth paste for the best mouthfeel.
Add the finely chopped red onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, pungent mustard oil, and salt to the mashed eggs.
Gently mix everything together until just combined. Over-mixing can make the dish pasty. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
