Good morning!

So, last night I was trying to look up a receipe and came across this site. New to the world of forums (and pretty new to the world of cooking eatable food), I thought I'd give this a try!

My question, for anyone who may know, is whether you have heard of or have a receipe for hamburgers with an egg in the center. I think I saw it on TV a while back (can't decide if it'll even be tastey), but man do I want to try it!

Last nights search left me empty handed, so I just made hamburgers stuffed with cheese and onion...Here's hoping someone may know about the egg thing!!

I have seen hamburger or sausage patties with a depression in one side
to hold an egg as it cooks. Sort of like a meat cocotte.

But just off the top of my head i can imagine how one would get any
thing other than a hard boiled egg, or a slice of hard boiled egg,
inside a meat patty.

I have seen deep fried eggs but they were hard boiled before being
peeled and batter dipped and deep fried.

Are you thinking of Scotch Eggs? They can be made with hamburger as
well as with the traditional sausage, and seasoned as you wish. There
are many recipes on the internet, here is something to start with, you can
find baked or deep-fried ones:

I don't know about stuffing it with egg but I do know about putting them
on Cheeseburgers! BTW, Cheeseburgers are my favorite food in the whole
world so I know Anyway, I often put a fried egg right on top of the
burger and veggies, yum... Just slap it right up on there and try it. If
you like eggs and toast, and if you like burger, I think the tastes go
together quite well. Like a crazy omelet with bread

Oh, don't get me started on burgers, as there is nothing more dear to my
heart

Indians can be quite enthusiastic about eggs and they adopted Scotch
Eggs from the British. The meat covering in Nargisi Kababs is more
highly spiced than the British original but the dish is an improvement,
in my opinion.

It's a take on Scotch eggs, really. Scotch eggs are coated in crumbs of
one sort or another and deep-fried. Surround the hardcooked egg with the
burger meat and cook it. Never tried cooking a burger with a raw egg in
the centre though; we usually mix the egg in

My Filipina colleagues used to make a 'sausage' of sorts (embutido) with
ham (and other ingredients) that contained hardcooked eggs down the
middle of the roll. That got wrapped up and baked.

That'd be a Gala Pie, a version of the old pork pie.


But, with all this talk of hamburgers, I've taken some rump steak out of the
freezer, and once it's thawed, I'll mince it up with the mincer to make some
'rustic' burgers :-)

When I was in junior high, the cafeteria served (only once!) a
"spinach loaf" that had hard boiled eggs in the center. It was really
vile - unanimously went in the garbage from every tray.

N.

(What is "toad in the hole?" Isn't that an egg in the middle of -
what - sausage? There isn't any reason you couldn't cook an egg in
the middle of a burger - I think Fieri recently visited a diner that
did that. Maybe that's where the OP saw it.)

She should have toasted one side, flipped it and then put the egg in
if she wanted it sunny side up.

My mother used to make that kind of stuff (egg in a hole) when I was a
kid. The bread was fine. I didn't like the egg part. She used to
bake eggs in the oven too, I'm sure it has a fancier name like shirred
- but the eggs.... I hated them. Haven't made either type to this
day.

On another food ng that's focused on English food, they were talking
about it as Yorkshire puddinglike batter that you put sausage in. I
Just googled some information... this is pretty informative

Oh, ugh. That egg on a hamburger thing is too disgusting. It's as
bad as egg on pizza.

A fried egg (over easy) on garlic buttered white rye toast with a bit of
catsup and mayo is a favorite of mine.

Yes, but that is not texturally like burgers. The embutido is a bit
closer in texture to a burger, but that depends on how the meat has been
ground.

The UK version of toad in the hole consists of sausages embedded in
Yorkshire pudding batter and baked. There probably are other things by
that name made with other ingredients.

When I was in a boarding high school, on Fridays the cafeteria staff
routinely used leftovers from earlier in the week, tossed it together
along with some "plops" or white rice and called it chow mein <eyeball
roll>

The day room candy machine and the base commissary did a land office

That is the sandwich of summer!! For those of you who don't know, my
daughter (15) races motocross and we do a lot of camping during the
summer at the weekend events. Those sandwiches are a staple and Dee
(track mom) makes them every morning. Bacon or ham, with egg, cheese and
if you are real good a slice of tomato or some crumpled onion... yum.
Great way to start off a long day.

Were it so freakin special you'd make it more than twice a year... you

Is that ham and egg? Well, at least that make sense... If I'd ordered
it, I would have sent it back though because I don't like brown eggs.

Dang, but that egg/ham sandwich sure looked delicious! Definitely not
fast food <g>. The sesames on the bun really made a difference, I bet.
Was that Lin's sandwich in the background? Looks like it might've been
something on rye with swiss cheese - not that I can tell

Oh yeah.. I made them for lunch. I scorched the onions and then made
them into a layer about the size of the huge crescent rolls we picked up
fresh the other day. I broke an egg over the "patty" and broke the yolk.
After a minute or so, before the top cooked, I one thin slice black
forest ham and flipped the thing over. I sprinkled grated yellow cheddar
and cooked it for another minute or so to singe the ham and finish the
egg. I sliced a fresh croissant roll and spread on some mayonnaise. Put
the patty in the bun and serve... The wife and kids loved them.

Ah yes, i have been known to puree veggies to a paste and mix with
stock/wine and ground meat to make a patty, ball or loaf with a "pate"
like consistency.

I do that for Swedish meatballs and a meatloaf so i can slice it very
thin for cold meatloaf sandwichs.

One of my favorties, right up there with ground veal is a combonation of
ground chicken and shrimp.

A Chinese friend from Hong Kong used to make meatloaf of a sort. She
ground the meat so finely, the meatloaf was silky and also pate-like.
Quite nice really.

Schnitzel a la Holstein was always one of my father's favourite dishes.
Named for a German baron, I'm told

We don't do veal, but make the schnitzels from pork. Same sides, minus
the paprikas sauce. Just fresh lemon juice and salt, nothing else.
There's pork slices in the freezer and red cabbage in the veg drawer

Can't even remember the last time we had veal. Some time during my
childhood. Looking into making pork sauerbraten, as we don't eat beef.

Remember, a mainstay of fast-food breakfast, the Egg McMuffin, is a sandwich
with an egg on it. Regardless of how one feels about McDonalds, they sell a
lot of the things, suggesting that the notion of a sandwich with an egg on
it is not in general found to be totally repulsive.

Breakfast this morning was an egg sandwich. Two slices Mr's Baird's 7
Grain bread, two eggs, one slice of ham and a slice of cheese.

Oh... my combined cholesterol is 136. Really.

"
We are getting into semantics here :-) Doesn't the E-MacM have an egg
"IN" it not "ON" it? When I was a child in Britain we quite often had
fried egg sandwiches on untoasted white bread as a quick meal (sometimes
even with ketchup :-). Come to think of it, I used to make them when I
was in a hurry as a graduate student.

The Caribbean Princess made their version of Egg McMuffins. They bake
their own English muffins and they used Canadian bacon, eggs and cheddar
cheese instead of processed cheese. I tried them, they were pretty good.
They were making Belgian waffles, so the sandwich was probably a better
choice for me.

You two can cloud the issue all day long, but I'm still not convinced
that egg on a hamburger is a good thing (nor is an egg on pizza).

Egg is great, alternately you can just lay a few catchup drenched French
fries on there
