Preparation

Scotch egg:

  • Boil 2 eggs for 6 minutes and 30 seconds, then place them in cold water and keep them in the fridge
  • Cut the chicken into pieces, remove any unwanted parts, and rinse it
  • In a blender, add the chicken, ginger and garlic puree, soy sauce, and some coriander leaves
  • Blend until you get a chicken paste
  • Peel the boiled egg (cold)
  • Spread the chicken paste on plastic wrap and place the egg in the center
  • Form a tight ball (without piercing the film)
  • Repeat for the other egg and freeze for 20 minutes
  • Beat 2 eggs in a bowl
  • Coat each scotch egg with cornstarch, egg, and breadcrumbs
  • Coat them in breadcrumbs again, form nice balls, and freeze for another 20 minutes
  • Fry them in oil at 160 degrees for about twelve minutes
  • Before the breadcrumbs get too dark, bake them at 200 degrees covered with aluminum foil for a few minutes
  • It takes a few minutes to finish cooking.
  • Wait a little before cutting to see the yolk flow.

Udon noodles:

  • Slice the garlic into slices and finely chop the onion.
  • Sauté the onion in a little oil and add the garlic.
  • Pour in the soy sauce and the cream.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil, add the hot sauce and then the noodles with a splash of water.
  • Taste, add salt, pepper, mix, taste again, and cover.
  • When the noodles are nice and creamy, plate them in a beautiful deep dish with sesame seeds and chives.
  • Cut a Scotch egg in half and place it on top, sprinkle with pepper.
