Scotch Egg

[Rando]

Now I have never tried, or heard of these before now, but here is a handy recipe guide to making one of these beauties:

a hardboiled egg encased in sausage meat, rolled in breadcrumbs and then fried. fried. fried.

scotch egg recipe

6 hard-boiled eggs, well chilled (i try to cook them to just past soft boiled stage, then stick them in the coldest part of the fridge to firm up)
1 pound good quality sausage meat (i used ground turkey meat, seasoned with sage, white pepper, salt and a tiny bit of maple syrup)
1/2 cup AP flour
1-2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup panko-style bread crumbs
Vegetable oil for frying

peel eggs; divide sausage into 6 portions.
roll each egg in flour then press and shape a portion of the sausage around each egg.
dip sausage-wrapped eggs into beaten egg and roll in panko.
heat oil to 350˚F .
cook each egg for 4-5 minutes (longer if shallow frying--constantly turn the eggs around for best results) or until sausage is cooked and browned.

And by the way, I think that that is disgusting.

If I wanted to kill myself with food, I'd just eat a few pounds of bacon.

No thanks, I can't do broiled eggs. If there was something better inside the sausage then maybe.

Seconded.

I would so eat that with a bowl of 'super hot' chili sauce.
