Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 pound ground sausage meat
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried sage
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 6-7 minutes. Remove from heat, run under cold water, then peel.
-
In a bowl, combine the sausage meat, breadcrumbs, dried thyme, dried sage, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
-
Divide the sausage mixture into 4 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a round patty, big enough to encase an egg.
-
Roll each peeled egg in flour, then place it in the center of a sausage patty. Gently shape the patty around the egg, ensuring it is fully covered.
-
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the sausage-coated eggs into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
-
Remove the eggs from the oil and drain on a paper towel.
-
Transfer the eggs to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for an additional 5 minutes to ensure the sausage is fully cooked.
-
Serve the homemade scotch eggs hot or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed plain or with your favorite dipping sauce.
