Scotch Egg Sauce Sauce Ecossaise Recipes

Steps:

• Place 6 eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Add the vinegar and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat, cover and set aside 4 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a bowl with ice water. Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggs and immediately plunge into the ice water to stop the cooking; let sit 2 minutes. Gently peel the eggs and set aside.
• Combine the sausage, herbs and one of the remaining eggs in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until combined, about 3 minutes. With moistened hands, mold the sausage mixture around the cooked eggs to completely cover.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat about 3 inches of grapeseed oil in a small high-sided saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 325 degrees F (or until a pinch of panko sizzles in the oil). Season the flour with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Beat the remaining egg with the milk in another shallow dish. Put the panko in a third shallow dish.
• Roll the sausage-covered eggs in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess. Transfer to the egg-milk mixture and turn to completely coat. Let the excess egg drip off, then roll in the panko.
• Fry the eggs until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove to a baking sheet, transfer to the oven and bake until the sausage is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Mix the mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice in a small bowl. Serve with the Scotch eggs.

Steps:

• To make the mustard sauce: Crack 1 egg into a small saucepan. With the heat on low, stir in mayonnaise, mustard and sugar. When it just starts to boil, it's done. Remove and let sit until cool, then chill for at least 10 minutes.
• Place 6 whole eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and cook eggs for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel.
• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Put the sausage into a bowl with the finely parsley, lemon rind, nutmeg, marjoram, salt and pepper. Work all the ingredients well into the sausage with your hands. Make a coating for each hand boiled egg out of the sausage, working it round the eggs with wet hands to form an even layer. Roll the covered eggs in beaten egg, and then in dried breadcrumbs.
• Carefully slide in 3 eggs and fry for 4 to 5 minutes, until they turn deep golden brown. Turn them as they cook so that they brown evenly. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towel, and repeat with the remaining 3 eggs. Serve eggs with mustard sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the oil to 325 degrees F (or until hot enough to sizzle when a breadcrumb is dropped in). DO NOT ALLOW OIL TO SMOKE!
• In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, mix together the sausage meat, fresh herbs, and 1 whole egg. Mix together until softened and pliable. Take hard-boiled eggs and wrap sausage mixture around completely covering the egg.
• In preparation for breading, prepare the following: Season flour by adding salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Take remaining beaten egg and mix with milk in another shallow dish. Put panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
• First roll the sausage-covered egg into the seasoned flour. Shake off excess flour and move to the beaten egg mixture and cover completely with egg. Remove any excess, then roll in breadcrumbs. Drop immediately into hot oil and cook until golden brown. Remove, place on sheet pan, and place in oven for approximately 10 to12 minutes or until sausage meat is cooked.
• For sauce, mix mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice together and serve with scotch eggs.

Steps:

• Divide the sausage into six portions; flatten and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Shape each portion around a peeled hard-boiled egg. Roll in beaten egg, then in cornflake crumbs. Place on a rack in a baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink, turning every 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to a rapid boil, then lower four of the eggs into the pan and simmer for 7 mins 30 secs exactly. Scoop out and place in a bowl of iced water, cracking the shells a little (this makes them easier to peel later). Leave them to cool completely, then peel and set aside. Can be boiled the day before.
• Put the sausagemeat, pepper, ham, stuffing and herbs in a small bowl, mix to combine, then divide into four equal balls. Squash one of the balls between a piece of cling film until it's as flat as possible. One at a time, lightly flour each cooked egg, then use the cling film to help roll the sausagemeat around the egg to completely encase. Repeat with the remaining sausageballs and eggs.
• Beat the remaining egg and put on a plate. Put the flour and breadcrumbs on two separate plates. Roll the encased eggs in the flour, then the beaten egg and finally the breadcrumbs. Can be prepared up to a day in advance.
• To cook the eggs, heat 5cm of the oil in a wide saucepan or wok until it reaches 160C on a cooking thermometer or until a few breadcrumbs turn golden after 10 secs in the oil. Depending on the size of your pan, lower as many eggs as you can into the oil, and cook for 8-10 mins until golden and crispy. Drain on kitchen paper, leave to cool a little, then serve halved with some piccalilli.
