Serving Details

  • Yields: 6-8 eggs
  • Prep Time: 30 minutes

Recipe Description

Elevate your classic Scotch egg with this luxurious twist. Smoked salmon adds a delicate, smoky flavor to the traditional sausage meat filling.

Ingredients

For the Filling:**

  • 200g pork sausage meat
  • 100g smoked salmon, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Coating:**

  • 6-8 large eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Hard-boil the eggs and peel them.
  2. In a bowl, combine the sausage meat, smoked salmon, Dijon mustard, dill, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cut each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise.
  4. Divide the sausage mixture into 6-8 portions and wrap each around a half egg, sealing the edges.
  5. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with breadcrumbs.
  6. Dip each sausage-wrapped egg in the flour, then the beaten egg, and finally the breadcrumbs, ensuring it is fully coated.
  7. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
  8. Fry the coated eggs in batches for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  9. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as aioli or tomato ketchup.

Tips

  • For a richer flavor, use a high-quality smoked salmon.
  • You can add other herbs and spices to the sausage mixture, such as chives or paprika.
  • For a healthier option, bake the Scotch eggs in the oven instead of frying them.

Put the flour in a large bowl, then stir in the yeast and a large pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre, pour in 175ml warm water and the oil and bring together with a wooden spoon to make a soft, fairly wet dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-8 mins until smooth. Divide the dough into four balls and arrange on a floured tray, well spaced apart. Cover with a tea towel and set aside for about 40 mins-1 hr until doubled in size.

Heat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 8 and put a baking tray in the oven to heat up. Roll the dough balls out on a floured surface into long baguette sticks about 22-25cm long, place on the hot tray and bake for 10-12 mins until puffed up and golden, then leave to cool. Can be made a few hours ahead of baking.

To assemble, split the bread down one side and neatly layer in the tomato, ham, mozzarella and rocket, if using. Mix the pesto with the olive oil, drizzle over, halve and serve.
