There seem to be quite a variety of stuffed egg recipes from India like: http://nidhiraizada.blogspot.com/2008/11/stuffed-eggs.html 

Make it as a Tea Time Snack or as a
Starter for a Dinner. Eggs are stuffed with minced meat coated with
batter and deep-fried in oil.

Ingredients:
6 eggs (hard boiled)
3 tbsp minced mutton
1 tbsp ghee / oil
1 tbsp chopped onions
Salt To Taste
1 green chili (chopped)
1/2 tsp ginger (grated)
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp corn flour / corn starch
1 egg (beaten)
1 tbsp cilantro leaves (chopped)
1 lemon juice
breadcrumbs for coating
Oil for deep-frying
Method:
Heat the oil / ghee in a frying pan and fry the onions till golden.
Add
the minced meat, salt, green chili, ginger, tomato paste and lemon
juice and fry for about 8-10 minutes or till meat is cooked. Add
cilantro leaves and remove from the heat and allow it to cool. Remember
meat mixture should be completely dried keep aside for later use.
Remove the shell of the hard boiled eggs and cut each egg half.
Take out the yolks, break them into small chunks and mix well with the fried meat mixture.
Stir the corn flour into the beaten egg, making a batter.
Place the breadcrumbs on a flat dish.
Fill
the meat mixture into the yolk cavity (place from where yolk is
separated) of each egg half, cover with another half to make a complete
egg shape.
Insert a tooth pick in the stuffed egg in such a way that both the egg halves remain intact with each other.
Dip the stuffed eggs (with the tooth picks) into the egg, corn flour batter and roll over the breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a wok / deep-frying pan over a moderate heat and fry the stuffed eggs until golden all over.
Remove and drain on a paper towel.
Serve with chutney or sauce.
My wife is much more taken with Indian cooking so I'll see if she will try these.
