My sister's scotch egg recipe (fantastic new year snack). Scotland

Scotch eggs.

Ingredients:

1lb sausage meat (pork). 5 hard boiled eggs (shells removed). 1 large raw egg. 3oz (approx) of dry breadcrumbs. Pinch of mace, salt and freshly ground pepper. Small quantity of flour. 1 tablespoon water.

Method:

Dust the hard boiled eggs in a little flour. Mix the mace, salt and pepper with the sausage meat and divide into five equal portions. Place on a floured surface. Wrap/mould the sausage meat round the egg, making sure there are no gaps. Beat the raw egg and water together and coat the meat-covered egg. Roll/pour on the breadcrumbs (you may have to press the crumbs onto the meat).

Deep fry in hot oil (360F/185C), taking care as you put the eggs into the oil. Cook for about 5/6 minutes. If you don't have a deep fat fryer, they can be cooked in oil in a frying pan, turning frequently to ensure the meat is fully cooked.

Drain and serve hot, or allow to cool and keep in a refrigerator - for a cold snack later.

Enjoy.
