Egg Recipe Winner: Vegetarian Scotch Eggs: Submitted by Sugar Magnolia

For four hearty Scotch Eggs:

• 4 organic eggs hard-boiled and chilled
• 1 package of fake sausage or regular sausage, if you prefer
• 1 clove of garlic, minced
• mixed herbs to flavor bread crumbs
• fresh or otherwise bread crumbs (fresh, from 3 slices of sandwich bread was enough for me)
• 4 Tbsp sesame seeds
• 1/3 cup flour
• 2 raw eggs, lightly beaten
• vegetable oil, for deep-frying

Remove egg shells, and rinse with cool water. Maneuver the sausage to enclose each of the eggs. Combine garlic, herbs, bread crumbs & sesame seeds on a plate or shallow bowl. Lightly dust the sausage-covered eggs in flour, dip in raw eggs, and coat with bread-crumb mixture. Heat about 2 1/2 inches of vegetable oil to about 350°. With a slotted spoon, drop 2 eggs in at a time, cook 4-5 miuntes or until browned and sausage is fully-cooked. Drain off some of the extra grease (or not! we’re living large here, right? and enjoy. Cheers!
