Generoso loves he Scotch Egg and has dined on them on many an occasion over the years but he always felt that something was missing so he transformed this classic dish into a bizarre Italian version that we enjoy every now and then.  The basic idea is there, a 6 minute boiled egg nestled into the middle of a large meatball that is deep fried but Generoso makes a few changes to the recipe that we know you will enjoy.  

What you’ll need is a pound of ground pork and a pound of ground beef (80% lean) as opposed to the sausage meat that is normally used in the traditional Scotch Egg.  You’ll also need about 9 large eggs,  a half pound of unseasoned bread crumbs (Generoso uses panko), a half pound of all purpose white flour, four carrots. one green onion with bulb, 12 cloves of garlic, two stalks of fresh oregano, three stalks of fresh parsley, one can of puree tomatoes, olive oil, 1/2 cup of ground parmesan, salt, and pepper.  A deep fryer is awesome is you got one, otherwise please be careful when using a pot as a deep fryer.  Please let us know how yours turns out and repost to your friends!
