Ingredients

4 medium eggs (plus 2 for egg wash)
360g quality sausage meat
227g quality black pudding
100g Japanese Panko bread crumb
Salt
Pepper
100g plain flour
350ml of Mellow Yellow Rapeseed oil for deep frying, dependent on pan size

Method

Bring a pan of water to a rolling boil. Boil your eggs for 5 minutes 15 seconds and then put straight into ice cold water.

Once cooled, peel your eggs.

Cut up the black pudding into very small chunks. In a large bowl, mix the sausage meat and black pudding together, use your hands if needed to ensure they are fully combined. Split the mixture into 4 equal balls. Using your hands, make a hole in the sausage meat and wrap each egg in the sausage meat so the egg is completely covered. Keep your hands wet to stop the meat sticking.

Set up 3 bowls on your work surface. In the first, put flour and season with salt and pepper. In the second, whisk in two eggs and add a drizzle of Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil. Finally, put panko breadcrumbs in the third.

Roll each scotch egg in the flour, egg and then breadcrumbs.

Pour Mellow Yellow into a deep, small saucepan, the oil should be deep enough to come just over halfway up each scotch egg. The smaller the saucepan, the less oil you will need to use. Bring the oil up to 150°C and deep fry each scotch egg for 7 minutes, turning halfway through cooking.

Season the egg yolk after cutting.
