- Hi, I'm Henry Phillips,
and I've been cooking for almost six years now,
and I've been teaching it for even longer.
And when the folks at Thrillist approached me
about making my own master chef class,
I took this as an opportunity to share the vasts amounts
of knowledge that I've accumulated over the last six years.
And in case you're not familiar with my work,
we've handpicked some of my more popular recipes
to show you.
Like this Scottish traditional favorite,
the Scotch Egg.
(Scottish folk music)
Hello and welcome to Henry's Kitchen,
where today we're going to be making
the amazing, tasty Scotch Egg.
The Scotch Egg claims to have been invented
by the London department store Fortnum & Mason in 1732,
but was most likely inspired by the Mughlai dish,
Nargisi Kofta narcissus meatballs.
OK, so the ingredients we're gonna use are our eggs,
our flour, our ground turkey, some of our bread crumbs,
and I like to use some of our parsley.
Just gonna break our eggs,
get a little bit of an egg wash that we're gonna use.
You can see I got a little bit of shell in there.
Just gonna beat the eggs for a little bit.
You know, the Scottish have a saying
that age is just a number.
And the higher that that number is,
the closer you are to dying.
Start preparing our turkey mixture.
I like to add a little bit of cinnamon to make it
nice and breakfast-y,
cinnam-y, delicious-y.
And we're gonna take our turkey mixture
and flatten it out,
and then what I want you to do is pull the sides
of the wrapper up, like so
on all sides, until you have sort of a ball.
Hold on everybody.
- [Child on video] You flatten it out with your hands
and put the egg inside it,
and then you do not let any
of the egg spat.
- I f*cked up.
OK guys, the first thing I forgot to mention,
we're gonna wanna hard-boil our eggs.
And we're just gonna peel our hard-boiled eggs.
Ah shoot.
They're still a little bit runny.
But that's OK because they're gonna cook in the oven.
I'm gonna fold this around, like so.
Do the same thing with this one.
The next step is we're gonna form sort of an assembly line,
if you will, where I'm gonna take one of our Scotch Eggs,
place it in our egg wash,
surround it with a little bit of flour,
and finally, dip it in our
bread crumbs.

with just about any sauce you can think of:
ketchup, horseradish, personally I just like
to use a little bit of mustard.
