Scotch Eggs

When Nick and I started dating, I asked him what his favorite food was.  All he could say was that he mostly ate eggs and meat (which is why I pump him full of vegetables as much as I can).  This is the perfect dish for him.  My friend Sami, who lives in New York, was blown away that people actually make scotch eggs.  When he comes to town, this dish is mandatory.

QUICK TRICK:  Eggland’s best sells pre-made hard boiled eggs in a 10 pack at most grocery stores.  I use Bob Evans Zesty Breakfast Sausage and split that into 6 equal parts.  Flatten out each piece and cover the hard boiled egg.  Then dip it in a flour mixture with salt, pepper, garlic powder.  Cover it with an egg wash, then coat with Panko.  Deep fry in vegetable oil in a pan, turning the scotch egg until golden brown.
