You lot have never had or heard of a scotch egg!?

wow!

They're not very tasty IMO - although admittdley I ahven't had one since I became a veggie 18 yrs ago!

I was fixing to say dont veggies eat eggs but it would be the sausage that put you off, huh?

Well, I made Scotch Eggs today. I fried 5 and I baked 5

I like the baked ones better than the fried ones. They are actually quite good! I thought the frying would make the egg rubbery, but it didn't. I was able to get 5 eggs cover with 1 pound of Jimmy Dean pork sausage

Here are the fried ones:




Here are the baked ones:

Thanks for your experiment!! The baked ones LOOK more appetizing to me, too!

What? Scotch eggs don't contain Scotch?? A pity!

I wonder....how would they be with some OTHER covering...cause the big thing for me would be the crunchy texture...

do Veggetarians eat fried stuff if they are fried in Vegetable oil, Kelda? can you have French Fries and fried pickles? *swoon on the fried pickles*

Just think of it as eating fried chicken before there IS a chicken. ;)

 :laugh: :laugh:  Good one, David! 

I've heard of Scotch Eggs, but I never knew there was sausage involved!  I always thought it was just a breaded and fried hard-boiled egg!

gap, those baked ones do look pretty good - although I'm not a big fan of sausage. 


I wonder....how would they be with some OTHER covering...cause the big thing for me would be the crunchy texture...

That's what I was wondering, too. What they'd be like if you just coated them in seasoned bread crumbs and then baked them....

Thanks for sharing your results, gap!
