  Place each egg onto a sausage meat oval, then wrap the sausage meat around each egg. Make sure the coating is smooth and completely covers each egg.
• Step 5
  Roll sausage-coated egg in flour, the dip in the beaten egg, rolling to coat completely, next dip and roll into the breadcrumbs to completely cover.
• Step 6
  Heat the oil in a deep heavy-bottomed pan over medium high. Fry eggs turning to brown on all sides, 5 or so minutes per side.
