Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups grape seed oil
1 pound pork sausage meat
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
1 egg, plus 1 beaten egg
6 hard boiled eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup milk
2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise
3 tablespoons stone ground mustard
1 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the oil to 325 degrees F (or until hot enough to sizzle when a breadcrumb is dropped in). DO NOT ALLOW OIL TO SMOKE!
  • In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, mix together the sausage meat, fresh herbs, and 1 whole egg. Mix together until softened and pliable. Take hard-boiled eggs and wrap sausage mixture around completely covering the egg.
  • In preparation for breading, prepare the following: Season flour by adding salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Take remaining beaten egg and mix with milk in another shallow dish. Put panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
  • First roll the sausage-covered egg into the seasoned flour. Shake off excess flour and move to the beaten egg mixture and cover completely with egg. Remove any excess, then roll in breadcrumbs. Drop immediately into hot oil and cook until golden brown. Remove, place on sheet pan, and place in oven for approximately 10 to12 minutes or until sausage meat is cooked.
  • For sauce, mix mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice together and serve with scotch eggs.

BAKED SCOTCH EGGS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Baked Scotch Eggs With Mustard Sauce image

You can save a lot of time by not grinding your own pork, but these directions provide tips for that. I've also included a handy way to peel soft boiled eggs, which I prefer for this recipe over hard boiled eggs. The mustard sauce is adapted from Robert Irvine's recipe.

Categories     Pork

Time 2h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1 tablespoon parsley
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper, freshly ground
1 lb lean pork
5 large eggs
1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
1/2 cup olive oil mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 ounce lemon juice

Steps:

  • 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 for 1 hour before using in meat grinder. If not, then refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place 4 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, and allow to sit for 8 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water and immerse in ice water. NOTE: 8 minutes give the eggs a soft center. Allow to sit for 10 minutes to hard boil eggs.
  • 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 4 equal portions and flatten into a disc shape. Place the eggs in the center of the discs 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.
  • Place sausage wrapped eggs on an ungreased cookie sheet and cook for 30 minutes, until the outside turns golden brown.
  • Combine mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice to create mustard sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 egg
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup yellow mustard
2 tablespoons white sugar

2 quarts oil for deep frying
12 ounces ground pork sausage
1 tablespoon dried parsley, crushed
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • To make the mustard sauce: Crack 1 egg into a small saucepan. With the heat on low, stir in mayonnaise, mustard and sugar. When it just starts to boil, it's done. Remove and let sit until cool, then chill for at least 10 minutes.

  • Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Put the sausage into a bowl with the finely parsley, lemon rind, nutmeg, marjoram, salt and pepper. Work all the ingredients well into the sausage with your hands. Make a coating for each hand boiled egg out of the sausage, working it round the eggs with wet hands to form an even layer. Roll the covered eggs in beaten egg, and then in dried breadcrumbs.
  • Carefully slide in 3 eggs and fry for 4 to 5 minutes, until they turn deep golden brown. Turn them as they cook so that they brown evenly. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towel, and repeat with the remaining 3 eggs. Serve eggs with mustard sauce.

SCOTCH EGGS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Scotch Eggs with Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 large eggs
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 pound bulk pork sausage
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
Grapeseed or vegetable oil, for frying (about 4 cups)
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup milk
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise
3 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
Juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Place 6 eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Add the vinegar and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat, cover and set aside 4 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a bowl with ice water. Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggs and immediately plunge into the ice water to stop the cooking; let sit 2 minutes. Gently peel the eggs and set aside.
  • Combine the sausage, herbs and one of the remaining eggs in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until combined, about 3 minutes. With moistened hands, mold the sausage mixture around the cooked eggs to completely cover.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat about 3 inches of grapeseed oil in a small high-sided saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 325 degrees F (or until a pinch of panko sizzles in the oil). Season the flour with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Beat the remaining egg with the milk in another shallow dish. Put the panko in a third shallow dish.
  • Roll the sausage-covered eggs in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess. Transfer to the egg-milk mixture and turn to completely coat. Let the excess egg drip off, then roll in the panko.
  • Fry the eggs until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove to a baking sheet, transfer to the oven and bake until the sausage is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Mix the mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice in a small bowl. Serve with the Scotch eggs.

HARD-BOILED EGGS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Hard-Boiled Eggs With Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Jacques Pepin

Categories     breakfast, easy, quick, appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large eggs
2 large cloves garlic, peeled, crushed and chopped (2 teaspoons)
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
1/3 cup canola or safflower oil
12 lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to boil in a saucepan. Lower the eggs into the boiling water. Bring the water back to a very gentle boil, and cook the eggs for 8 to 9 minutes. Drain off the water, and shake the pan to crack the shells of the eggs. Then, add ice and water to cover, and let the eggs cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the mustard sauce by combining all the sauce ingredients except the oil in a bowl. Add the oil slowly, mixing it in with a whisk or a spoon. Set aside at room temperature until ready to use.
  • Shell the eggs, and cut them in half lengthwise. The center of the yolks should be slightly soft. Divide the lettuce leaves among six plates, and place two halves cut side up on top of the lettuce on each plate. Coat the eggs with the mustard sauce, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For a perfect Scotch egg, use large eggs and fresh sausage meat. Large eggs will give you a better egg-to-sausage ratio, while fresh sausage meat will ensure the sausage is flavorful and moist.
  • When wrapping the eggs in sausage meat, make sure the sausage meat is evenly distributed. This will help the Scotch eggs cook evenly.
  • When frying the Scotch eggs, make sure the oil is hot enough. This will help the sausage meat brown evenly and the eggs will stay soft and runny.
  • Serve the Scotch eggs with a dipping sauce of your choice. Mustard sauce is a classic, but you could also try HP sauce, brown sauce, or even a simple mayonnaise and ketchup mixture. Remember keep experimenting until you find a taste that suits your preference best.

Conclusion:

Scotch eggs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or even a snack. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like them classic with mustard sauce or prefer more adventurous flavors, there is a Scotch egg recipe out there for everyone. So next time you are looking for a fun and easy dish to make, give Scotch eggs a try. You won't be disappointed!
