Scottish Eggs

---

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)!

---

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.
