A very British snack with a twist….<\/p>\n
I used to love scotch eggs when I lived in the UK. The almost perfect paleo snack.. if it weren’t for the breadcrumbs. So when I went low-carb, I was sad that I could no longer pop into Marks n Spencer’s and grab one. It has to be said, a crappy scotch egg is a major disappointment, but a delicious one – is absolute heaven!<\/p>\n
Of course, moving to Spain fixed that. I’m never tempted by a scotch egg here – they don’t exist. But I thought to myself, why not make them myself? And I have to say, these are ten times better than the processed ones from the UK… and 100 percent paleo and low carb. Can’t go wrong!<\/p>\n
If you aren’t familiar with scotch eggs, they are basically pork mince, wrapped around a hard boiled egg. (Which, of course, is peeled!!) Then usually covered in breadcrumbs and deep fried.<\/p>\n
Mine, of course, are a little different. And I used extra large eggs – so these are HUGE.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
