• Toast fennel seeds on stove, keeping them moving constantly, until they turn a golden brown color, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool, then grind in spice grinder. Combine with salt, pepper, and parsley in small cup.
• If grinding your own pork, trim fat from pork and cut into 1" cubes.
• Combine the blend from Step 1 with the pork. If grinding your own pork, put in freezer (along with all grinder components except for the motor) for 1 hour before using in meat grinder. If not, then refrigerate until ready to use.
• Start to heat up oil in deep fryer or pan deep enough to toally cover eggs, until it reaches 350°F.
• Place eggs in a pot of cold water that just covers the eggs. Heat until the water achieves a rolling boil. Remove pot from heat immediately, cover, and allow to sit for 3 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water and immerse in ice water. NOTE: this gives the eggs a soft center. Allow to rest for 5 minutes to hard boil.
• NOTE: quail eggs are incredibly hard to peel when soft boiled due to the thin shell. To peel egg shell, tap the bottom of one egg to crack it. Use a spoon to carefully peel the shell away from the egg while rotating the egg. Repeat for each egg. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• If grinding your own pork, remove pork from the freezer and grind.
• Divide the sausage into equal portions and flatten into a disc shape in the palm of your hand. Place the egg in the center of the disc and carefully wrap the sausage around them, ensuring that there are no openings.
• Place the breadcrumbs in a bowl. Whisk the remaining egg in another bowl. Roll each sausage wrapped egg in the egg wash to fully coat, then roll in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.

• Whilst the eggs are cooking off. Prepare the sausage meat by dividing into 4 equal parts and then flattening out each part on some clingfilm.
• Now it's time to de-shell those eggs. Lightly tap the outside of the egg with a metal spoon and then peel the shell off. I find this easy to do under the cold water then it just slips right off.
• Once you have de-shelled all your eggs place each egg on a piece of sausage meat. Carefully wrap the meat around the ahh being careful not to pop the egg.
• Once each egg is fully wrapped up in sausage meat, wrap it in the clingfilm and make into a nice ball shape and then chill for 2 hours to firm up the meat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6).
• Boil water using a kettle or a pan.
• Carefully put the quail's eggs into a small pan, adding the vinegar. Once the water boils, pour in the boiling water straight away and cook for 2 minutes. Don't do it longer, they will go rubbery!
• Move the pan to the sink and run cold water over the eggs for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Tap, roll and very gently peel the shells off them. Sometimes it helps if you do this under cold water. The first couple are hard to do but you'll get the hang of it.
• Place the pork in a bowl with spices and mix together. Divide the meat into 12 equal portions.
• Take a piece of the pork mixture and flatten it in the palm of your hand.
• Place one of the quail eggs in the centre and stretch the pork mixture around to cover the egg completely, then roll between your hands to make an even-shaped ball. Repeat with the remaining eggs and pork mixture to make 12 balls.
• Place the flour, beaten egg and cornflakes/breadcrumbs in 3 separate shallow bowls.
• Dip each Scotch egg first in the flour to lightly coat, then in the beaten egg, and finally in the cornflakes/breadcrumbs. Repeat with the remaining eggs and place on a plate until ready to cook.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden, making sure the pork mixture is cooked all the way through.
• Can be served hot or cold, goes well with mustard but I think they are tasty enough to skip it.
