scotch egg
Encased pub protein
A scotch egg is a hard-boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried or baked.
A British pub snack and picnic staple, it's served cold or hot, often with mustard: We grabbed scotch eggs from the deli for the train. (Capitalized Scotch egg also appears, reflecting the Scottish association.)
