While the eggs are boiling put all the other prepared ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix together well.
You can leave the garlic out if you like but I always think it brings out all the other flavours and adds very little to the calorie count.
Once the eggs are hard-boiled (I leave mine for 10 minutes) cool them down quickly under cold water and remove the shells. Chop the eggs and add them to the mixture. Stir everything well and add the salt and freshly ground pepper.
Cover the mixing bowl and chill for an hour to let the flavours blend before serving.
