Stuffed Eggs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 hard-cooked eggs, cooked and shelled
    1 (4 1/4 ounce) can sardines in oil, drained (yep, that's the one)
    4 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 dash Tabasco sauce
    1 -2 tablespoon mayonnaise
    1/3 cup all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
    1 large egg, slightly beaten
    vegetable oil (for deep frying)
    salt & pepper
    fresh parsley sprig, to garnish
Preparation
    Cut the eggs in half lengthwise, scoop out the yolks, and push the yolks through a fine strainer in a small bowl.
    Mash the sardines with a fork and add to the egg yolks. Stir in the lemon juice, Tabasco, and mayonnaise. Season with S&P.
    Spoon the filling into the egg white halves, mounding it up well. Dip each egg half into the flour, then into the egg, then into the bread crumbs.
    Heat the oil to 350\u00b0 and deep-fry the egg halves for 2 minutes. (I could do four at a time) until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot, garnished with parsley sprigs.
