Scottish Eggs - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 hard-boiled eggs, well-chilled
1 lb sausage meat
2 tablespoons minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 - 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
vegetable oil (for frying)

Preparation

Peel hard-cooked eggs.
Make sure the eggs are well-chilled so that the sausage meat will cling to them more easily.
Combine sausage, parsley, sage, and pepper in large bowl; mix well.
Press meat mixture evenly around eggs, keeping the oval shape.
Sprinkle eggs with flour, coating lightly all over.
Dip into beaten egg; then roll in bread crumbs to coat.
Pour oil into deep-fryer, or large heavy saucepan, to fill 1/2 full.
Heat to 350 on deep-fat frying thermometer.
Cook 1 egg at a time, for about 4-5 minutes until meat is well-browned.
Drain on paper towels; cool.
Refrigerate.
Slice to serve.
