Scotch Eggs Recipe

5 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • 7 eggs, divided
  • 1 pound sausage (bratwurst works very well), removed from casing if necessary
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

  1. 1
    Place 6 eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water, bring to a simmer, then cover and let sit for 5 minutes before running under cold water. Once cool enough to handle, peel eggs and set aside.
  2. 2
    Divide sausage into 6 evenly sized balls. Press each ball into a disc then wrap each sausage disc around the peeled egg.
  3. 3
    Beat remaining egg. Then place sausage-covered egg in flour, followed by egg, followed by breadcrumbs; repeat with all eggs.
  4. 4
    Preheat oven to 375°F. Pour one inch of vegetable oil into sauce pan and place over medium high heat. Heat oil to 350°F and, working in small batches, fry eggs until brown on all sides, placing browned eggs in preheated oven. Once all eggs are cooked serve immediately with cucumber pickles.
