Happy Friday friends!
Scotch Eggs have always been a family favorite. Back in the day in Lagos Nigeria, Scotch Eggs was one our favorite things to get from Mr. Biggs. Ah… that pink beef sausage meat, encased in the crispy outer shell, and then the eggs in the middle that sometimes had a touch of pink from the sausage meat.
Mr. Biggs scotch eggs had a distinct flavor. I can almost still taste it.
Making this brought back lovely memories of childhood days. Eating it was even better because it tasted great!
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
