About the Recipe

​

Ingredients

What you need

Base:

8 oz. Ground Beef, raw

1 tsp. Mustard (optional)

1/2 tsp. Sea Salt

4 Eggs, hard-boiled, peeled, cold

Coating:

1 Egg, raw

1/4 c. Meat Flour (page )

1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder (optional)

1/2 tsp. Dill, dried (optional)

1/2 c. Cheese Crumbs (page )

Preparation

What to do:

Base:

Mix Ground Beef, Mustard, and Sea Salt together in bowl

Divide Ground Beef mixture into 4, 2 oz. meatballs

Use hamburger press to flatten meatballs

Place Boiled Egg in the middle and wrap Ground Beef around the Egg, sealing it

Do this to all 4 eggs

Coating:

Blend Meat Flour and seasonings on plate

In bowl, beat Raw Egg with fork

Dip each Scotch Egg in the beaten egg, then roll in Meat flour

Squish it lightly in your hands to keep Meat Flour attached

Roll each Scotch Egg in beaten egg again

Then roll in Cheese Crumbs

Squeeze lightly to secure Cheese Crumbs

Do this to all 4 eggs

In an Air Fryer, place all 4 Scotch Eggs. (Does not need to be preheated unless you want to)

390°F for 10 minutes

 

Notes:

-        ~ If you want it dairy-free, leave off Cheese Crumbs

-        ~ If you ran out of meat flour, leave it off and proceed to Cheese Crumbs

-        ~ I find it helpful to divide the Meat Flour mixture and the Cheese Crumbs in half before coating Scotch Eggs. This way, you won’t use up all the coating on the first few eggs

Enjoy!
