Chef Brendon "Brez" Barwise from The Real Junk Food Project, Sheffield says don't be afraid of making your own scotch eggs. Even with quails eggs it's not as hard as you might imagine. Just be careful when peeling the eggs.听听

Ingredients

路听听听听听听听听 6 quail eggs

路听听听听听听听听 White wine vinegar

路听听听听听听听听 200g of sausage meat

路听听听听听听听听 1 tsp fresh sage, finely chopped

路听听听听听听听听 Pinch of grated lemon zest

路听听听听听听听听 Sea salt

路听听听听听听听听 Ground white pepper

路听听听听听听听听 Vegetable oil, enough for deep frying

路听听听听听听听听 2 regular eggs

路听听听听听听听听 100g of plain flour

路听听听听听听听听 100g of breadcrumbs

Method听

Prepare a bowl of ice water and set aside.听

Fill a saucepan with water, add a splash of white wine vinegar and bring to the boil. Carefully drop the quail's eggs in and boil for 2 minutes.听

Remove the eggs from the water with a slotted spoon and place into ice cold water. Once they are cold, peel and set aside. Be very careful when handling the quail's eggs 鈥� they will be soft and fragile.听

Using your hands, mix the sausage meat in a bowl with the chopped sage, lemon zest and a pinch of salt and pepper.听

Divide the sausage mixture into 6 equal quantities and press flat between your hands or two pieces of clingfilm and to form a thin sheet of the sausage mixture. It is important that the sausage meat is the same thickness throughout. Carefully wrap each quail's egg in the mixture, packing the eggs solid and ensuring that there are no air pockets.听

Cover the Scotch eggs with cling film and refrigerate for 5 minutes to set.听

Whisk the hen's eggs in a bowl. Place the flour and breadcrumbs on 2 different plates.听

Cover each Scotch egg with the flour, egg and then breadcrumbs, then roll again in egg and breadcrumbs, lightly coating each time. The second coating prevents any cracks when frying.听

Heat the deep fat fryer to 175藲C and fry the scotch eggs for 3 minutes.听

The leek sauce with this is a great accompaniment to a roast chicken dinner.听

Ingredients

路听听听听听听听听 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs

路听听听听听听听听 12 strips streaky bacon

路听听听听听听听听 120g black pudding

路听听听听听听听听 1 large leek or 2 small

路听听听听听听听听 300ml milk

路听听听听听听听听 25g Flour

路听听听听听听听听 30 g Butter

路听听听听听听听听 90g cheese (mature cheddar)

路听听听听听听听听 2 tbsp olive oil听

Method听

Pre heat the oven to 180掳听

Lay 3 stips of bacon out on a board, lengthways and butted up together. Place one chicken thigh in the middle of the bacon slices, put some grated black pudding in the middle and wrap them around the chicken tightly. Repeat with the rest of the chicken until you have four wrapped pieces of chicken.听

Place 1 tbsp of olive oil in a pan and brown the chicken听 on each side for 1-2 minutes until the bacon is sealed.听

Place the chicken on a baking tray and cover with tin foil. Bake for 20 minutes then remove the foil and bake for a further 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked all the way through.听

Once the chicken thighs are in the oven, start preparing the leeks. Roughly chop the leek and add to a frying pan with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Saut茅 the leeks until soft then set aside.听

When the chicken is almost done, start preparing the cheesy sauce. In one saucepan lightly heat your milk. In another pan, add the butter and melt. Then add the flour. Stir the flour/butter mixture for about 30 seconds (it should be a thick paste).听

Add the warmed milk a little at a time to the butter and flour mix until it has thickened then add the cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Take off the heat and stir until the cheese has melted. If it's too thick add a little more milk and return to the heat for a second until warmed through. Add the cooked leeks to the sauce and stir.听

Serve the chicken thighs with mashed or roast potatoes and pour over the cheesy leek sauce.
