Ingredients
Method
1.Blend the black pudding and sausage meat in a food processor until well combined.
2.Cook the duck eggs for two minutes in a pan of boiling water, then drain and refresh in iced water.
3.Once cooled, carefully peel the eggs and shape the black pudding mixture around them to form small balls.
4.Sprinkle the flour and breadcrumbs onto separate plates. Dredge each Scotch egg in the flour, then dip in the beaten egg and coat in the breadcrumbs.
5.Heat the oil in a deep fat fryer & carefully place each Scotch egg into the hot oil and deep-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden-brown and crisp and the sausage meat is completely cooked.
6. Carefully remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper.
7.Chop apples and place in a cling filmed bowl and microwave for two minutes & then mix with caster sugar and lemon juice.
8.Mix olive oil & balsamic vinegar and dress the salad.
