Method
Put the eggs into a small pan with cold water.

Drain and cool the eggs under running cold water (or in a large bowl of cold water).
Peel the eggs and grate them on a large-mesh grater.
Chop the red onion and chives into small pieces and put them into a bowl together with grated eggs. Leave a bit of onion and chives for sprinkling on the end.
Add grated mozzarella cheese and mayonnaise.
Using a spoon mix combine all together.
Add a pinch of salt, pepper and sweet paprika and mix.
Put into a separate bowl and sprinkle with onion and chives.
