Scotch Eggs Recipe

 

I’m getting quite good at cooking. hehehe

Tonight I cooked Scotch eggs; I followed the recipe I found online and it did work like a treat.

It was actually very easy to do and quite fun too.

I ate it hot but it could be eaten cold with a nice serving of salad.

Below are the photos of my effort:

Scotch Eggs Recipe

ingredients:

1/2  packet of Sausage meat (freeze the rest to see another day 😉 or make some stuffing balls with it)
4 boiled eggs, peeled
Breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
nutmeg
thyme
Salt and pepper

Method of preparation:

Cut the sausage meat in four slices, flatten it over a cling film.

Put one of the boiled eggs in the middle.

Now gather the corners of the cling film, completely enclosing the boiled egg.  The end product should resemble a ball.

Dip the ball into  beaten egg.

And again dip it in breadcrumbs mixed with the salt & pepper, nutmeg and thyme.

Do this with the rest of the egg&sausage balls.

Spritz with some oil before they go to the oven for 20 minutes at 180C.

Enjoy with some salad or a turmeric rice. Better yet have some salad and rice.

Don’t forget the tomato ketchup!

Cheers! Have a happy cooking time and a happier eating time.
