Classic Scotch Eggs

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Scotch Eggs.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) while you heat oil in a deep fryer to a sizzling 375°F (190°C).

2. Step 2

   Next, grab a saucepan and gently place your eggs inside, covering them with water.

3. Step 3

   Bring the water to a lively boil, then cover the pot and take it off the heat.

4. Step 4

   Let those eggs bask in the hot water for about 10 to 12 minutes, allowing them to cook perfectly.

5. Step 5

   Once the time is up, cool the eggs in a bowl of cold water before peeling them to reveal their beautiful, smooth surfaces.

6. Step 6

   Now, take your pork sausage and flatten it out like a little pancake.

7. Step 7

   Carefully wrap a piece of sausage around each peeled egg, making sure it’s completely encased in that savory goodness.

8. Step 8

   For a little extra crunch, lightly dust the sausage-wrapped eggs with flour, then dip them in beaten eggs, and roll them in seasoned breadcrumbs until they’re fully coated.

9. Step 9

   It’s time for the fun part! Gently lower the prepared eggs into the hot oil and fry them until they turn a gorgeous golden brown, turning them occasionally for even cooking.

10. Step 10

    Once they’re perfectly crispy, transfer them to a baking sheet and pop them in the preheated oven for an additional 10 minutes to ensure they’re cooked through.
