Instructions
-
Soft-boil the eggs. Bring water to a boil. Carefully lower eggs in. Boil for 6 minutes exactly for a runny yolk, 7 for jammy. Transfer to ice water. Peel carefully.
-
Season the sausage. Mix sausage meat with sage, thyme, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
-
Wrap the eggs. Divide sausage into 6 portions. Flatten each into a thin patty. Wrap around a peeled egg, sealing completely. Roll in pork rind crumbs if using.
-
Bake or fry.
- Bake: Preheat to 200°C (400°F). Place on a lined baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes until sausage is golden and cooked.
- Fry: Heat oil to 175°C (350°F). Fry 4-5 minutes until deep golden.
-
Serve. Cut in half to reveal the beautiful yolk. Serve warm or at room temperature.
