What it is
A classic pub snack, traditionally a hard-boiled egg wrapped in seasoned sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried. The keto version omits the breadcrumbs, focusing on the rich filling and can be baked or shallow-fried.
Key ingredients
Hard-boiled egg, seasoned pork mince (sausage meat), egg (for binding), herbs (sage, thyme), salt, pepper, cooking oil.
How to make it keto
Request omission of breadcrumbs. Confirm no hidden flour or rusk in the sausage meat. Request baked or shallow-fried instead of deep-fried. Can be served with a side of mustard or keto-friendly greens.
Watch out for
Traditional breadcrumb coating, hidden sugars or fillers in pre-made sausage meat. Some restaurants might use a flour-based binder.
