Scotch Eggs ~ Delicious #Breakfast #Recipe @DonnaFaz

Hard-boiled eggs coated in breakfast sausage might have originated in Scotland, but I first tasted them on a trip to London. If you’ve never eaten Scotch Eggs, now is your chance to give these tasty morsels a try.

Scotch Eggs

Serves 8

8 hard-boiled eggs, peeled

¼ cup flour

1 pound bulk pork sausage

¾ cup dry bread crumbs

1 teaspoon ground sage

¼ teaspoon salt

2 eggs, beaten

Vegetable oil for frying

Coat each egg in flour. Divide the sausage into 8 equal pieces. Flatten one piece of sausage and pat to cover one egg. Do the same for the remaining sausage and eggs. Mix together the bread crumbs, sage, and salt. Dip the sausage-coated eggs into the beaten eggs and then roll in seasoned bread crumbs.

Heat oil (about 1 ½ inches up side of pan) in a 3-quart saucepan to 360º. Fry eggs, 4 at a time, turning occasionally, until all sides are nicely browned, about 5-6 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot or cold. I prefer them hot.

Enjoy!
