Egg Surprize

Egg Surprize

Ingredients:
Oil for deep frying
1 kilo ground pork
1 onion (finely chopped)
Coriander (finely chopped)
Salt & pepper to taste
6 boiled eggs
2 slightly beaten eggs
Bread crumbs

How to:
Season ground pork with onion, coriander, salt & pepper. Place a plastic cling wrap on a flat board. Form a ball of the seasoned ground meat on top of the plastic wrap. Place another plastic cling wrap above the meat and flatten the meat with the palm of your hand. Do this by pressing it slowly until flat forms a round flat meat. (as shown in the picture) Remove the plastic on top and place the egg at the center of the meat. Form the meat into an egg wrapping the egg. (Shown in the picture) Remove the plastic at the bottom or the meat. You now got an egg wrapped with the seasoned meat. Dip into beaten egg and then roll into the bread crumbs for coating. Do this procedure twice (coating) to achieve a firmer coating by dipping the egg formed meat again into the egg and roll again into the bread crumbs. Deep fry until golden brown. You’ll get a crispy crust with tender meat and a soft egg inside.. lots of texture lots of flavor. That is a real egg surprise! Good for outdoor picnic.

What you have here are Scotch Eggs, traditionally the only seasoning is mace. Take a look at this GIANT SCOTCH EGG here: www.pimpthatsnack.com/project.php?projectID=131

I like the idea of using coriander but you try these ideas too:

* By making a 'garden' version with chopped spring onions, lots of parsley, sage and thyme. I think thyme is a must for Scotch eggs

* A spicy version with finely sliced red pepper, chilli and paprika.

* 100g of cubed stilton or smoked bacon can be added to the sausage meat.

* You can vary the coating by using polenta or oatmeal instead of breadcrumbs.

An interesting version is with quails' eggs covered in pate
