INGREDIENTS

4 eggs;
400 g (14 oz) minced chicken;
2 tsp ground ginger;
1 tsp chili flakes;
4 scallions, sliced;
4 tsp sugar;
2 tbsp soy sauce;
2 tsp garlic powder;
1 tsp salt;
½ tsp ground pepper;
vegetable oil for frying.

METHOD

Make soft boiled eggs by putting them into simmering water and cooking for 4 minutes. Remove and put into ice cold water immediately. Peel.
Combine chicken, ginger, chili flakes, scallions, sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder; salt and pepper.
Divide minced chicken into 4 balls, place each between two greased sheets of parchment and press with a glass to make a thin patty.
Remove paper and wrap chicken around the egg to cover completely. Make sure to remove excess mince around eggs to form a uniform and moderately thin layer that will cook evenly.
Heat oil to 180C (350F).
Dredge scotch eggs in flour, deep into beaten eggs and pass in breadcrumbs. Repeat egg and breadcrumbs layer if you prefer thicker crust.
Fry each ball for 4 minutes (do not overcrowd the pan!) and transfer onto paper towels.
Serve hot with your favorite sauce.
