Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs (boiled to desired doneness)

  • 400g (about 14 oz) sausage meat

  • Salt, pepper, and optional herbs/spices (like paprika or thyme)

  • 1 raw egg (beaten)

  • ½ cup flour

  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)

  • Oil for frying

Directions

  • Peel the boiled eggs and set aside.
  • Season sausage meat and divide into 4 portions. Flatten each portion and wrap around an egg, sealing completely.
  • Roll each sausage-wrapped egg in flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.
  • Heat oil in a deep pan (about 170°C / 340°F).
  • Fry each Scotch egg for 5–7 minutes, turning to cook evenly, until golden brown.
  • Drain on paper towels and let rest before slicing.

Notes

  • Soft-boiled eggs give a gooey center; hard-boiled for more traditional style.
  • Can be baked at 200°C (400°F) for 25–30 min as a lighter option.
  • Serve with mustard, pickles, or a fresh salad.

Origin Mixed Salad

Mixed salads have been a part of Mediterranean and European cuisines for centuries, often served before or alongside main dishes. They became especially popular in modern health-focused eating for their versatility, fresh taste, and nutritional value. Every region has its twist, whether it’s French vinaigrette, Italian balsamic drizzle, or Indian chaat masala for a desi kick.

What I Love About This Recipe

What I truly love about this salad is how effortlessly it brings together flavor, texture, and color. You can make it with whatever’s in the fridge and still end up with something satisfying and wholesome. It’s light but filling, thanks to crunchy veggies and leafy greens. Whether I’m having it as a starter or a complete lunch, it always feels refreshing and guilt-free.
