I love Scotch Eggs, I have also made and introduced in few restaurants (Cross Key Chelsea, London) and I don’t why I didn’t share this simple easy and yummy recipe in my blog till now.
Finally I made it and sharing it. This is a European & Indian style recipe but kept healthy point as well as easy availability of ingredients in market, I added onions, coriander leaves, garlic and few spices into the meat and wrapped it around the egg and deep fried till nice golden brown & runny egg yolk inside. It was delicious and healthy too.
Cooking the egg properly is the main key in the whole recipe, I like them to be cooked in a way so the yolks are still soft and squidgy, I don’t like thick full-cooked powdery yolks. So I will never recommend you to cook the eggs for more than 5 mins.
