This is a post in response to a request. I do remember my mom making these once though and think these would be a wonderful addition to a brunch or a Scottish-themed meal!(prep/cook time does not include time to hard-cook eggs)
Ingredients: [‘hard-boiled eggs’, ‘sausage meat’, ‘parsley’, ‘ground sage’, ‘pepper’, ‘flour’, ‘eggs’, ‘breadcrumbs’, ‘vegetable oil’]
Quantity of Ingredients: [“6 hard-boiled eggs, well-chilled “,”1 lb sausage meat”,”2 tablespoons minced parsley”,”1/2 teaspoon ground sage”,”1/4 teaspoon pepper”,”1/4 cup flour”,”2 eggs, beaten “,”1/2-3/4 cup breadcrumbs”,” vegetable oil (for frying)”]
Number of Servings: 6
Steps: [‘Peel hard-cooked eggs.’, ‘Make sure the eggs are well-chilled so that the sausage meat will cling to them more easily.’, ‘Combine sausage, parsley, sage, and pepper in large bowl; mix well.’, ‘Press meat mixture evenly around eggs, keeping the oval shape.’, ‘Sprinkle eggs with flour, coating lightly all over.’, ‘Dip into beaten egg; then roll in bread crumbs to coat.’, ‘Pour oil into deep-fryer, or large heavy saucepan, to fill 1/2 full.’, ‘Heat to 350 on deep-fat frying thermometer.’, ‘Cook 1 egg at a time, for about 4-5 minutes until meat is well-browned.’, ‘Drain on paper towels; cool.’, ‘Refrigerate.’, ‘Slice to serve.’]
