Instructions
- COVER eggs with water in a large pot. Boil for 3 to 4 min. Transfer eggs into a bowl filled with very cold water. Let cool for 5 min, then peel and pat very dry with paper towels.
- DIVIDE sausage meat into 6 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a 5-in. circle. Lay a boiled egg in the centre of a circle and wrap sausage meat around egg to cover completely. Repeat with remaining eggs and meat.
- POUR panko into a shallow bowl. Coat sausage-covered eggs with panko completely.
- POUR oil into a large pot until it reaches 1/2 in. up the sides. Heat over medium. Add 2 eggs. Cook, turning eggs often, until panko turns golden-brown, about 2 min. Transfer to a paper-towel- lined platter. Repeat with remaining eggs. Serve warm or cold, with Tomato-Thyme Chutney.
Prep Tip: Use a deep-frying thermometer for perfect results. Oil temperature should be 325F for cooking Scotch Eggs.
