Anyone else liked and tried Scotch eggs?

Question

Is there a place that serves them in Toronto?

Answer 1

Yes, but then I live in Scotland and you can get them in any supermarket.

Answer 2

I make scotch eggs for others, but I do not like them myself.  I would rather have the sausage on the side with fried eggs.  I think it is the hardboiled egg I really do not like.  They are really easy to make - so you could try them at home.  

For those that don't know what Scotch eggs are...here is the recipe I use:

Scotch Eggs



This recipe makes 6 Scotch eggs.

6 hard-cooked eggs, well chilled

1 pound breakfast sausage

1/2 cup flour

2 eggs, beaten

3/4 cup fine bread crumbs

Vegetable oil for frying

Peel eggs and set aside. Divide sausage into 6 portions. Roll each egg in flour and with hands press a portion of the sausage around each egg.

Dip sausage-wrapped eggs into beaten eggs and roll in bread crumbs. Heat vegetable oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cook each egg in oil about 4-5 minutes or until sausage is cooked and browned. Drain on paper toweling. Serve warm.
