Scotch Egg Casserole?!

[creagdhubh]

The first "Main" picture is from the original recipe card, the rest of it is someone's blog (retrorecipes) actually giving the recipe a go. That probably covers the discrepancy in onions- As for the 'extra' meat, my guess is that the card probably shows a double
recipe and those are eggs turned downward into the tomato.

I thought about a mustard sauce as well, or even a British Onion Gravy, the sort used on Toad in the Hole, possibly finished with a bit of mustard.

I guess the tomato sauce is what threw me in this recipe. I guess I 'get' the Sweet & Sour with it, but the sauce is otherwise quite plain. The idea of a mustard sauce goes a long way to making this more exciting.

I think I'd rather just heat the finished Scotch Eggs in the oven and then dress with a sauce right before serving.

Gotta have a mustard sauce!

A bit of culinary over-thinking of what is already a complete and portable meal - try putting a casserole in your pocket!

A casserole goes into the pocket just fine. Getting it back out, though, THAT is the real trick!

I think I'll pass on this recipe idea. Part of the allure of a Scotch Egg is the crispy exterior. Baking it in a sauce would just make it soggy and yucky. And besides, a tomato sauce would be the last thing I'd want as an additional flavour. If I absolutely had to put something on a Scotch Egg, I believe it would be a cream gravy or even a Hollandaise sauce. Or heck, a cheese sauce. But not a tomato sauce.

Hmm ... Scotch Eggs baked in a tomato sauce ... no thanks . It would seem to be an experiment of Scottish cuisine meets Italian . I guess the next recipe will be spaghetti with Haggis meatballs .

Beats spaghetti with vegetable-based "meat-replacement" balls.

What about a haggis hamburger? With a horseradish cheddar or Havarti? Dang it now I'm hungry.

Well I had haggis lasagne at the Craignure Inn on Mull last year - it was a triumph (honestly!).

At least they would be served hot! In England they tend to offer them cold a and take some persuading to stick them in the microwave to heat them for me.

From time to time I encounter a dish that makes me miss eating meat.

I think it would also work with Veggie Scotch Eggs. We have an award winning scotch egg company in the UK who do a whole range of veggie eggs..http://www.handmadescotcheggs.co.uk/...an-scotch-eggs

I reluctantly admit to having made haggis tacos with leftover haggis. The result was pleasantly surprising. Methinks haggis is an under-used and under-appreciated concoction which could be very versatile if given the chance. It's also great scrambled with eggs for breakfast. So... a haggis hamburger? I say "why not?"!

If I have leftover Haggis I always end up making Haggis Hash- with diced, roasted potatoes, the Haggis, and a fried egg on top. Pure Heaven!
