  1. I'm reading a book by Corrine Trang, and she mentions that the vietnamese deep-fry hard-boiled
    eggs until they're "golden crisp" on the outside (and sometimes servd with a brasied pork
    hock/shank dish).

    This idea is intriguing. Has anybody actually deep-fried an egg? And can they really turn
    out crispy?

    Tastewise, I'm not sure what to expect. I'm thinking dry, burnt egg. But I just may try it next time
    I boot-up the oil.

    (beware of crosspost to r.f.c)

    Breakfast: Scrambled eggs with oyster and sriracha sauces.

  2. I'd be afraid they would explode and splatter grease. Wayne

    They are called 'mother-in-law' eggs I think. It wouldn't take long so no reason to have dry
    burnt egg.

    I saw deep fried eggs for the first time just over two weeks ago. We were dining at the restaurant
    where my nephew cooks and my wife's meal came with a deep fried egg as a garnish. Well, more than a
    garnish because it was quite edible. The result was more like a soft boiled egg. The next time I see
    him I will ask how he did them.

    Yes, I've done it for and Indonesian dish called "son-in-law eggs". They get a little crisp but
    don't stay crisp that long. Maybe if you cooked them longer. My recipe cooks them until they are a
    nice golden brown. They are then served in a spicy sauce so that also de-crisps them.

    As I said in a previous post, I saw deep pried eggs just a few weeks ago and had a taste. They don't
    have to be overcooked to be deep fried. Have you never tried deep fried ice cream? It comes out of
    the deep fryer with a nice crisp coating, but the inside is still frozen.

    I have had eggs that were hardboiled, then had sausage meat psked around them. They were deep fried
    and were wonderful.

    Son-in-law eggs? There's a Thai dish that goes by that name and it involves eggs, but I don't
    remember them being deep-fried. I think it's hard-boiled eggs braised with pork. I can't remember
    because it's one of those things I never liked (I have a dislike for hard-boiled eggs) so I stayed
    away whenever my dad cooked it for my mom (she used to get cravings for it, but he didn't).

    I saw one recipe on the net that uses a coddled/poached egg, and another that used a fried egg over-
    medium as a precursor to deep-frying them.

    This was the first time I tried it. I just saw it mentioned on the label (Lee Kum Kee's *Premium*
    Oyster Sauce) and figured - what the heck?

    I couldn't live without a good oyster sauce (theres plenty of inferior oyster sauces out there).
    Amoy with dreid scallop is my otherfavorite brand.

    Mmmm, I love this, too. Or I make a very plain omelette, with scallions and sometimes Chinese
    sausage, to go over the rice and under the oyster sauce. Delicious easy dinner, too.

    Scotch Eggs. There must be a run on these lately as they've been discussed in 3 different newsgroups
    this week (but not r.f.c).

    Scotch eggs. Very different from deep frying a hard-cooked egg on its own.

    On an Asian note, the very first time I ever had Scotch eggs was in Japan. They were a staple on the
    school lunch menu at the school I worked at. At first I though, "Gross!" because of my dislike for
    hard-boiled eggs, but then I began to like them. Sometimes I even crave them.

    I think it was sukotchu (su+ko+chisai tsu+chi+chisai yu) eggu. I should have kept some of my school
    menus. I used to love getting the new ones and figuring out which were going to be good lunch days,
    and which were going to suck.
