      Second, he *says* this dish actually originated in India near the end of the video.

  • @Mojoman57
    @Mojoman57 5 років тому +73

    I'm a complete novice and I just tried this recipe. Firstly, they taste amazing - thanks. Secondly, be careful with how much sausage you wrap around the egg. If you use too much the pork will be under cooked even when the outside looks done or even passed done. When you make your patty squish it out just a little more. Other than that I feel like I was successful. Thanks again.

      Not a good idea to put the eggs in such a small amount of water. Here is a better way to get soft boiled eggs: bring a pan of water to the boil make sure the water is actually boiling. Now put your eggs in the boiling water, not too many of course, turn off the heat source straight away and leave the eggs in the water for 3 minutes. That will give you perfect soft-boiled eggs.

    Hi Chef John,
    The name of the Indian Mughlai (influenced by the Mughal Dynasty) recipe is "Nargisi Kofta". The word Nargisi coming from the common name Nargis, which i believe means daffodils. But you are also right in the sense that "Narcissus" is a part of the scientific name for Daffodils.

    In Calcutta you get a version of this called Egg Devil😀. In the high end restaurant or shops they use a minced and cooked goat meat mix to cover the egg. In a poorer version they use a mix of mashed potatoes and meat. In another version, the boiled egg is cut open, the yolk is removed and replaced with a meat mixture. The outer coating is made of mashed potato. The Nargisi kofta is Scotch Eggs cooked in an onion based gravy. The covering on the egg is minced and cooked goat meat or chicken.

      +James Dooling This IS an excellent recipe, everyone in my family loved them. You're right about them best being undercooked, the yolk will cook a little more once they are finished off in the hot oil.

      It's true. You MUST add salt and pepper to the inside of eggs or they taste pretty bland!

    Traditional Scotch Eggs were made with sheep. As my Grand Da used to say "Have you ever seen pigs grazing on the hills of Scotland? ;) The ground sheep makes a huge difference ! And A wee bit of Thyme makes them perfect ! Also you roll the eggs in homemade day old bread crumbs before you wrap them as well as after. Serve them room temperature or a bit chilled with mustard seed mustard ! Think I may just go make some right now !

    • @nunyabizness6812

      I love that...but I think I would end up weighing 400 pounds! If he's willing to learn how to be a whole foods, Keto diet chef, then yes! I like to have lots of vegetables in my life, too. I'm so lucky my parents introduced me to the joy of broccoli when I was a kid. (NOT overboiled, not raw...well steamed or lightly boiled, and then you add a little butter, plenty of salt and pepper, and each person gets a wedge of fresh lemon to squeeze over the broccoli (or spinach!) and it takes away the 'sulfur' smell and enlivens the taste!
