Hat Trick

had these years ago in a restaurant in Toronto, I think...the most delicious combo of a hard boiled egg, wrapped in sausage and deep-fried...
periodically I've tried to recreate it at home...but so far, not the same.

a close facsimile was something I just recently stumbled upon in a restaurant in New Phila which were called 'Hog Eggs'...minus the sausage, but served with wing sauce....excellent, and probably a food that goes equally well with orange juice or beer.

anyone with any experience with these?

Love 'em- but not enough fat or cholesterol. Should be bacon wrapped. Seriously, have made them a few times, but the sausage "wrap" always shrinks exposing the egg to the oil. Maybe I should use better sausage.

Use a toothpick to skewer and hold everything in place.

Never heard of Scotch Eggs, but they sound delicious. I'm picturing a Scotch Egg w/ a biscuit and some gravy, now I'm hungry.

SCOTCH EGGS

1 lb. sausage
1/2 c. bread crumbs
1 egg
1 tbsp. bar-b-que sauce
1 tbsp. flour
Salt & pepper to taste
6 hard-boiled eggs
1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp. water
Dry bread crumbs
Oil for frying

Mix sausage with the 1/2 cup bread crumbs, the eggs and bar-b-que sauce, salt and pepper. Divide into 6 equal portions. Add coat the boiled eggs with a little milk. Shape the sausage mixture around each egg, brush with egg and water mixture and coat with crumbs.
Deep fry the Scotch Eggs for 5 to 7 minutes in hot oil but not too hot until brown. Drain and serve whole or cut in half with tomato sauce and veggies. Hamburger meat can also be used.


Good and different but not the best ... the time and effort so/so
