Easy Scotch Eggs

My auntie used to make these for me when I was young. She recently visited from Australia after not seeing each other for a long time so we cooked these together so that I could learn the recipe and have it to hand for when I want to bring back these childhood #memories :-)

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add the eggs the to a pan of cold water and bring to the boil on a high heat. Once boiling leave them in for 10 minutes.
- 2
Divide the sausage meat evenly into 6
- 3
After the 10 minutes are up run the eggs under cold water for a couple of minutes until completely cold this will keep the whites white.
- 4
Peel the eggs
- 5
Place the eggs on the sausage meat
- 6
Mould the sausage meat around the egg. Flour your hands and the board to stop them from sticking while doing this. Try to close any holes and get rid of any air. Air is the enemy!
- 7
Combine the single egg with the milk to make an egg wash
- 8
On a floured board shape each piece into a circle leaving a coating of flour on each.
- 9
Add the breadcrumbs to a bowl.
- 10
Roll each sausage ball in the egg followed by the bread crumbs
- 11
Heat the oil on a medium heat.
- 12
When the oil is slightly starting to bubble lower the heat and add a couple of eggs gently. You can cook two at a time
- 13
As the eggs cook, delicately rotate them so they are cooked though, they are ready when golden brown and looking crispy roughly 10 minutes
- 14
Top tip: If the oil is too hot the sausage meat will crack and fall off so lower it! You may need to sacrifice a test egg. It is better to let them cook slowly and stay in one piece!!
- 15
When the eggs are cooked transfer them to a plate lined with kitchen roll.

Best enjoyed with friends and family :-D

Scotch Eggs Scotch Eggs
I have head of these fabled delicacies but never attempted to make one until recently. It’s pretty straight forward. Soft boiled eggs, wrapped with sausage, breaded and fried. I used “Hot” 🙄 Italian sausage, because that’s what I had on hand. But, I personally think it would go better with the sweet Italian sausage with provolone and fennel in it. Karl -

Scotch Eggs Scotch Eggs
A scotch egg is a British pub snack consisting of a boiled egg encased in ground meat (typically pork sausage), coated with bread crumbs, and fried until the exterior is crispy and the meat is cooked through. Some scotch eggs have runny yolks, while others are hard-boiled. Scotch eggs can be served straight out of the fryer, or at room temperature.Traditionally, scotch eggs are deep-fried to get that extra-crispy crust, but for an easier alternative, consider baking them in the oven. You can also try a combination of both: First, quickly deep-fry the eggs, then finish cooking in the oven.This recipe uses the baked-in-the-oven method.Recipe adapted from Masterclass.com#nikicuisine #mycookbook Niki Freeman -
