This is a Scotch Egg recipe of sorts from an Englishman living in Wales.
There's not really a recipe as in 6 oz of sausage and 14 eggs, my instructions were to use really good quality eggs ,as many as needed. Then buy the best quality sausage or sausagemeat at the cheapest price I could, about 2 sausages per egg . Remove the skins and add a couple of slugs of worcestershire sauce, a wee bit of brown sauce, some dried parsley, a couple of splashes hot chilli sauce, a few grinds if black pepper and mix really well. If it's a bit wet add some breadcrumbs to make it easy to work with. Fry a small amount to check if you like the taste then leave to chill for at least 1/2 hour, To get the eggs right they must boil for about 41/2 mins until most of the yolk is set but there is still a soft piece in the middle. ( boil more than needed and cut one in half after about 4 mins to see if they;re ok) Then put them into icy water to stop them cooking any more. Peel the eggs and dry them wrap them in the sausage. Make sure there are no gaps or joins as they'll split. Roll each egg in bread crumbs then egg, then crumbs then egg then crumbs. Leave to stand a few mins then deep fry them. Johnnie always makes a hot spicey sauce for dipping but its too hot for me. Oh he also said If your eggs get that revolting grey ring feed them to the dogs.
