Scotch Egg

Scotch eggs are a classic British snack. They are hard-boiled eggs wrapped in sausage meat, breaded, and fried.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Place the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Boil for 9 minutes, then immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool.
Peel the eggs.
Divide the sausage meat into 4 equal portions.
Flatten a portion of the sausage meat into a patty, place an egg in the center, and wrap the meat around the egg. Repeat with the remaining eggs and sausage meat.
Roll each sausage-wrapped egg in flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs.
Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F.
Fry the Scotch eggs until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
