Ingredients
- 4 cups grape seed oil
- 1 pound pork sausage meat
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley leaves
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
- 1 egg, plus 1 beaten egg
- 6 hard boiled eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 cups panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons stone ground mustard
- 1 lemon, juiced
Instructions
- 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.

So good!! Family loved them.
We LOVE this recipe! Have made or family and friends and everyone raves about them and wonders how the heck did you do that with an egg!? I use Jimmy Dean premium pork sausage (regular), instead of mixing and seasoning plain pork – it’s so good and save a step and clean up!
Delicious!!!! I used 2 tsp of tarragon and chive seasoning (Pampered Chef) in place of tarragon and parsley. But easy and so good!!!
I loved this, made it after watching Dinner Impossible. My friends have requested I make it again. Well worth the effort.
After watching Dinner Impossible and seeing these made I had to try them. I have made them for breakfast, sent them with my husband and three sons for an outing, served them to co workers, and served them to about 15 people on a camp out. They are incredible!! Very easy to make (especially when the whole family joins in to help. Every person that has tried them have raved about them and asked for the recipe!! Robert Irvine is an amazing chef!! Thanks!
Absolutely amazing!!! Although there are a few steps to the process, it’s worth the effort. I wrapped the egg with bacon before encasing it in Sweet Italian Sausage, then covered it with Panko Bread crumbs before frying and baking them. They were then served on a bed of baby greens and drizzled with the mustard sauce. Beautiful and delicious.
these are so good and easy to make. my husband wants them all the time now. These made a great breakfast even cold for black friday deals.
