SCOTCH-EGG RECIPE

SCOTCH EGG

You know I wish that scotch was scotch as in 'Malt Whisky'....lol, but nevermind it's something much better. Scotch egg is one of my best snack, it is easy to make and doesn't take much time and energy at all.. It contains hard-boiled eggs, covered in flour, sausage, eggs and crumbs.. Scotch-eggs are quite expensive in the eateries and restaurants..so I'd encourage you to try the recipe out and make one for yourself. All the best :)

Ingredients

5 eggs

Sausage meat (250g)

1 tsp thyme

1 tbsp curry (not important)

1 chopped spring onion

Salt

1 tbsp ground pepper (dry pepper)

Plain flour (125g)

Breadcrumbs (125g)

Vegetable Oil; for frying

Preparing the Scotch Egg

· Season the plain flour with salt and the ground black pepper; you may use the red pepper as an alternative

· Beat one egg and place the remaining four eggs in a pot of cold water with salt in it over high heat boiling it for 5minutes and over low heat for 5minutes; (10minutes in total)

· Pour out the hot boiling water and run cold water on the eggs, and peel

· Mix the sausage meat with the thyme, curry and spring onion in a bowl and season with ground black pepper and salt and share the mix into five portions and keep them on the baking board

· Put flour mix into a bowl plate, then cover each boiled egg with a coating of the flour

· Cover each coated egg with the sausage meat and dip each of them in the beaten egg and then place in the breadcrumbs, rolling it to ensure its completely coated in the crumbs

· Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan (maybe a Wok), until it is hot.

· Gently place the scotch egg into the hot oil, then deep-fry for 10 minutes, until it golden and crisp and the sausage meat is completely cooked.

Avocados'

Avocados are very nutritious and contain monounsaturated fats (MUFA’s), fibers, potassium and some vitamins. Avocados are said to contain around 160 calories, 3 grams of protein, 12 grams of carbohydrate and about 21.5 grams of fat with the majority of carbohydrates in form of fibers. You can eat them in moderation as part of a weight-loss diet or add them to your regular diet as a concentrated source of calories to help you gain weight. While Avocados contain relative high calories, the Oleic acid contained in the MUFA’s can help to reduce one’s cravings for food and is used by the body as an energy burner, instead of the saturated fat you must have assumed it was. They also contain beta-sitosterol, a compound known to lower cholesterol levels. There are lots of health benefits attached to eating Avocados from improvement in Eye health to a glowing skin tone. Avocados can be eaten with almost anything, but for a healthy diet, I would recommend eating them with Salmons, Wheat brea
