Making a Red Wedding Cake for my Game of Thrones Premiere Party only seemed natural, but I found myself completely stuck trying to figure out how to honor dragons. Fortunately, my sister, the world's largest Khal Drogo lover, had just the solution I was looking for. I could make Scotch eggs because what's the use of wrapping something in meat if you're not going to fry it too.
Thanks for the idea, sis. This Mamoa's for you. |
Dragon Eggs
Adapted from All Recipes
Servings: 12
Time: 60 minutes
Lars out-peeled me 2 to 1 |
12 Jumbo eggs
3 lbs ground sausage (I used Jimmy Dean)
Cajun Seasoning
Hot Sauce
4 cups dried bread crumbs, seasoned
4 eggs, beaten
Oil for frying
Fire sauce (recipe below)
Teaching moment one: Get your hands covered in raw meat, so I don't have to! |
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Boil the eggs by placing them in a pot and covering with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat for 10 minutes.
- Bring the oil to 375 F in a large pot (only fill halfway).
- Let cool and peel the eggs.
- Season the sausage with hot sauce and cajun seasoning (lots of both).
- Wrap the eggs in a layer of sausage. Then dredge them through the eggs and coat with bread crumbs.
- Fry until golden brown (about 3-5 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon and let excess oil come off on a plate lined with paper towels.
- Transfer to a baking sheet and cook for 10 minutes in the oven. Remove any excess oil and keep warm in the oven at 200 F.
"Where are my dragons?!!?" (They're in your hands. Chill.) |
Fire Sauce

Time: 2 minutes
Mayonnaise
Sriracha
Cajun Seasoning
Dracarys! Yep, that's exactly what it was like. |
- Mix the mayo and sriracha together in approximately equal proportions (alter to control spice level). Season and stir until smooth.
These would be worth several armies in Westeros. |
The dragon eggs look slightly less intimidating when opened, revealing their inner googly eyed nature. |
The meal was rounded off with Kevin's Rosemary Chicken, Lars' and my Rosemary Potatoes, Megan's Chocolate Covered Strawberries and Laura's Sprinkles Cupcakes. |
