Ingredients
-
5 Hardboiled Eggs (medium is best but large also work - the mince may split a little)
-
500g Pork Mince 5% Fat - this can be replaced by any other mince (lean is best e.g. turkey), or our Ketoroma Clean Keto Sausage Meat!
-
1 Large Egg
-
50g Golden Milled Linseed/Flaxseed (or replace this for ground pork scratchings or leftover low carb bread, toasted and blitzed to a breadcrumb!)
-
Seasoning to taste - e.g. garlic, paprika, mixed herbs, chilli flakes, Kashmiri chilli, Curry Blend... the options are endless!
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Boil, cool, and peel the eggs.
Mix the linseed with the seasoning of your choice in a bowl.
Mix the minced pork with a few herbs and spices to suit your taste.
Divide the meat into 5 equal portions (around 100g per egg) and wrap the egg, completly covering it with the mince.
Roll the egg in the linseed mix to cover the surface.
Bake at 200°C for around 20-25 minutes. The scotch eggs may split slightly whilst baking if you're using large eggs.
You can also fry these - see the video below for details!
