Method

Egg Preparation

  1. 1

    Hard Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 9-10 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool for at least 5 minutes.

Sausage Mixture

  1. 2

    Prepare the Sausage Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground sausage meat, dried sage, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Assemble Scotch Eggs

  1. 3

    Wrap the Eggs

    Peel the cooled eggs and take a portion of the sausage mixture (about the size of a golf ball). Flatten it in your hand and place the egg in the center. Carefully wrap the sausage around the egg, ensuring it is completely covered.

Coating

  1. 4

    Bread the Eggs

    Set up a dredging station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Roll each sausage-wrapped egg in flour, dip in beaten egg, and coat with breadcrumbs.

Frying

  1. 5

    Deep Fry the Scotch Eggs

    In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (180°C). Carefully place the breaded eggs into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Mustard Sauce

  1. 6

    Prepare Mustard Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard and honey until well combined. Adjust sweetness to taste.
