Moving with the upper classes now I see - did you enquire what exactly made them luxury? Hope you thoroughly enjoyed both of them (and ate a good meal later). Oh and hope you were suitably dressed for the company (none of your explicit T shirts).
I tried, I sent John a turkey version which was baked instead of fried. If he ever made it, he didn't like it, as he thanked me for the recipe and then didn't comment on the result! Glad he liked these 9 pd ones as he deserves a treat.
Ok, confession here ~ I had no idea what a scotch egg is. I had to Google it...having done that, yeah, I think I could jump on board! Now, if only they could add some green chile from Hatch to it....yum.
I made some keto style and baked for the family, my welsh hubs gobbled them, the boy likes them and I had more fun making them than eating them. Used my own ducks eggs.
I hope your soon-to-be new salary will cover such luxuries on a regular basis. Belated congratulations on your new job. I hope you find it stimulating and rewarding.
I hope they met your expectations. What's their rating from the Scotch Egg Appreciation Society?
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck is a LUXURY Scotch egg?!? Coated in gold leaf instead of bread crumbs? Complements of the goose that laid the golden eggs?
ReplyDeleteA delicacy made by angels
DeleteSeeing how the other half lives? The Queen eats those, you know.
ReplyDeleteWhole too!!!!
DeleteWould love to visit Borough Market! Did you see Tom Parker Bowles? :)
ReplyDeleteNo but I think I saw Camilla

ReplyDeleteI was suitable dressed for London eyes Patricia
DeleteAnother one of life's treats I doubt I'll ever have. Enjoy, and LDL/HDL be damned.
ReplyDeleteLady Magnon recently paid about the same for a Pork Pie (fortnum's). Daylight robbery; but delicious.
ReplyDeleteLondon prices!
ReplyDeleteOr with real gold pieces?
DeleteCould have bought 8 boxes of free range eggs for that tho!��. But hey sometimes you just have to!.x Jan
ReplyDeleteI know....
DeleteYou do know that they are very easy to make and, if you use turkey sausage, probably not that bad for you?

DeleteI hope your soon-to-be new salary will cover such luxuries on a regular basis. Belated congratulations on your new job. I hope you find it stimulating and rewarding.
ReplyDeleteNo! Once in a blue moon a £4.50 scotch egg!
DeleteJust for comparison sake, how much would two "normal, everyday, boring" scotch eggs cost? -Jenn
ReplyDelete£1.99
DeleteNope
ReplyDeleteThey must be frigging emu eggs to cost that much.
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny! Just imagine them...
DeleteTerrorists would kill for one of those in Borough Market.
ReplyDeleteNot one of your best comments tom
DeleteI love that market, and those look heavenly.
ReplyDeleteYum they look like a fair size and you deserve to treat yourself every now and then.
ReplyDeleteI read every comment and answer and still did not learn what is in a luxury Scotch egg.
ReplyDelete£9!!!!! Blooming heck, John that is extortion even for London. They better had been the best thing you had ever eaten for that.
