Hot Scotch Eggs
- Ready In:
- 55mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Yields:
-
4 Scotch Eggs
- Serves:
- 8
ingredients
- 1 lb hot sausage (bulk, not links)
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon sage (dried, crushed)
- 2 teaspoons thyme
- 3⁄4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1⁄2 egg (beaten, to coat prior to bread crumbs)
- 4 eggs (hard boiled)
directions
- Mix mince and spices together by hand.
- Encase one shelled hard boiled egg in mince mixture. (I've had questions about the amount of meat -- you are aiming for bigger than a baseball and smaller than a softball in total size).
- Dip uncooked Scotch Eggs in beaten egg then gently roll in bread crumbs until coated.
- Refrigerate for 45-90 minutes.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes in a 400 degree oven, until bread crumbs are browned (the fat expressed by the mince alone is partially absorbed by the breadcrumbs, allowing for a beautiful browning and flavor). Allow to rest five minutes if serving hot, can also be served traditionally cold.
