Scotch egg I love you.
I was introduced to scotch eggs by a Brit hunk named Andy Bates. He was busy in his kitchen when I first saw him, mixing minced meat, herbs and spices and wrapping it around half boiled egg. Then, the baseball sized mixture was dunked in egg wash and bread crumb before he dropped it in the deep fryer. A few minutes later he took out a round golden brown crispy fare in his arm. It was love at first sight. Obsession, to be precise.
Andy was hosting a deelish-looking show on food network called Street Feast. We first 'met' through the 51" Toshiba in my living room on a lazy Sunday afternoon. A former restaurant chef, Andy travels around UK to feature popular street food around the country and give a twist to traditional British street food recipes in his kitchen. I have never heard of scotch eggs before Andy. It looks super yummy and dreamed about it one night.
Andy recently launched his cook book and Street Feast USA where he does the same with American street food.
His food is available in a street stall in London twice a week. So when I was in town, sampling the scotch egg is a priority on my list. Traditionally made with mince pork, Andy created a variety of scotch eggs with fish and a vegetarian version. They tasted way better then I imagined. In the spirit of holiday, I also sampled the spinach pastry and custard pie. LOVE. And I love it even more when Andy (He served the customers himself!) gave me a discount after telling him I watched his show on this part of the world.
I miss scotch egg so much I could smell it....
