Ingredients

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 quart oil for deep frying
• 4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled
• 1 pound pork sausage meat
• 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon salt
• 0.66666668653488 cup dry bread crumbs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix together the pork sausage and Worcestershire sauce. Combine the flour, salt and pepper; mix into the sausage.

Step 2

Divide the sausage into four equal parts. Mold each part around one of the hard-cooked eggs, rolling between your hands to shape. Place the beaten egg and bread crumbs into separate dishes. Dip the balls into the egg, then roll in the bread crumbs until coated. Shake off any excess.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C), or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil turns brown in 1 minute. Lower the eggs carefully into the hot oil. Fry for 5 minutes, or until deep golden brown.
