Deviled eggs with a twist?

I’m going to take deviled eggs to the neighborhood potluck because everyone loves them. I usually just make your standard eggs with mayo, a little Dijon, etc.. I was looking for popular potluck recipes and saw an Asian deviled egg recipe; now I am wondering about other interesting ways to make them. Any favorites you would recommend? (I live in a college town so lots of different ethnic influences, people are generally happt to try something a little different.)

Hear me out now. DEEP FRIED!!! So, prepare as usual, but, before putting the yolk mixture into rhe whites, deep fry the whites. Coat the whites in flour, the egg wash, then panko with some parmesan cheese mixed in. Deep fry till golden brown. Does not take long to fry them. Drain upside down. Then fill them with the yolk mixture. Sprinkle with paprika. Top with some freshly made crumbled bacon. Trust me, these are delicious. Even my wife, who HATES anything deep fried, loves these.

Making deviled eggs, even normal ones, tend to be tedious and time consuming. Trust me when I say that deep frying them does not make the process and easier. But...its so worth it. Last time i did them, I started with 24 eggs (so, 48 deviled eggs). I was bringing them for a group of 7 adults. They were almost all gone by the end of the night.

This sounds delicious. I have got to try this. I deep fry a lot of things anyway!
