Verscholen Eieren
Verscholen Eieren is the Dutch term which literally means "Hidden Eggs", actually refers to a dish made of eggs covered with a dough/batter, dipped into scrambled egg and bread crumbs and deep-fried. The dish is called "Hidden" eggs since the whole hard -boiled eggs must be covered generously by the mixture or batter made of bread soaked in milk, minced veal, egg yolk and then rolled again in breadcrumbs to hide the eggs.
I love this recipe, can be good for any meal time and can also be served as savory snacks or with vegetables salads as a side dish. I would love to cook this recipe one day, when my grandson visit us, I am sure he will love this.
4 hardboiled eggs
1 slice white bread
100 grams ground veal
salt, pepper, nutmeg
fine breadcrumbs
1/10 liter milk
1 egg
fat to deep-fry
Remove the crust and soak the bread in the milk, then squeeze to remove the surplus. Separate the one raw egg, and in a bowl add the yolk to the veal and bread. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Thoroughly mix all ingredients. Divide the mix into four parts and roll each into a flat piece big enough to wrap around an egg. Make sure that the egg is completely covered and the ground veal shows no seams.
Add a tablespoon of water to the egg white and beat it lightly. Roll the egg balls through the egg white and the fine breadcrumbs (or pulverized rusks).
Deep-fry the hidden eggs till the meat is browned and drain them on absorbent paper. Cut the eggs in half and serve them with salad.
