01 Step

Recipe View In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the pork sausage and Worcestershire sauce. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the sausage until evenly distributed. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions. Lightly flour your hands. Take one portion of sausage and flatten it into a patty. Carefully place a hard-cooked egg in the center and mold the sausage evenly around the egg, ensuring it is completely sealed. Roll gently between your hands to create a smooth, round shape. Repeat with the remaining eggs and sausage. (20 minutes)

Recipe View Place the beaten egg and panko bread crumbs into separate shallow dishes. Dredge each sausage-covered egg in the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, generously coat with panko bread crumbs, pressing gently to ensure they adhere. Shake off any excess crumbs. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). Carefully lower the Scotch eggs into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for approximately 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are a deep golden brown and the sausage is cooked through. (10 minutes)

05 Step

Recipe View Remove the Scotch eggs from the oil and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Allow to cool slightly before serving. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using a mix of pork and beef sausage.
Chilling the hard-cooked eggs beforehand helps the sausage adhere better.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even cooking. If the oil is too hot, the outside will brown too quickly while the sausage inside remains undercooked. If the oil is not hot enough, the Scotch eggs will absorb too much oil.
Scotch eggs are best served warm, but can also be enjoyed cold.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as mustard, aioli, or chutney.
