Scotch Duck Eggs
- 4 duck eggs, at room temperature
- 6 good-quality pork sausages
- 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped sage
- 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
- 4 tablespoons plain flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 100 g breadcrumbs
- peanut oil (for deep frying)
- brown sauce or ketchup, to serve
- Drop the duck eggs into boiling water. Cook for 7 minutes, then rinse under cold water and leave in cold water for 10 minutes to cool completely. Peel.
- Strip the skins from the sausages, then mix with the sage and parsley and season well. Divide the mixture into 4, then flatten each into a circle on 4 pieces of cling film. This will make it easier to form around the eggs.
- Dust the peeled eggs with flour then sit each on the sausage meat. Use the cling film to mould the sausage meat around each egg, ensuring there are no gaps.
- Roll each egg in flour, then the beaten egg, then breadcrumbs. Repeat with the beaten egg and breadcrumbs. Chill until ready to cook.
- Heat groundnut oil, no more than 1/3 deep in a pan, to 180u0b0C Cook the eggs for 5-6 minutes, turning a few times until golden and crisp. Serve with brown sauce or ketchup.
