Margie’s Scotch Eggs




These are a great hit for potlucks! We brought them to a beach potluck in St. Lucia and they were gone within 5 minutes.

1 lb. Ground breakfast sausage (Jimmy Dean in a tube variety works well)
6 hardboiled eggs, peeled
fine breadcrumbs (Asian Gourmet, Japanese style “Panko” breadcrumbs are the best)
oil for deep-frying

Thickly coat each egg with sausage and mold in your hands like a snowball. Coat with breadcrumbs. Deep-fry one egg at a time until golden brown, approx. 4 minutes per egg. Cut in half and serve cold. If bringing to a party, eat one before you leave home to be sure you get one!
