How to Draw a Scotch Egg
Draw a Scotch egg in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: a plate.
Step 1: A plate
Below the middle draw a long flat oval plate, nearly as wide as the page. Add a second oval inside.
Step 2: A whole scotch egg
On the left of the plate draw a big smooth egg shape, a little wider than tall.
Tip A scotch egg is a boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat and crumbs.
Step 3: The cut half
On the right draw a circle about the same size, sitting on the plate. This is the cut half.
Step 4: The egg inside
In the cut half draw a smaller round for the egg white, with a small round yolk inside it.
Step 5: Crumbs
On the whole egg draw 6 small dots, spread about, for the crumb coating.
Step 6: Pointed leaves
Tuck 2 pointed leaves in a V in front of the whole egg, each with a line up the middle.
Tip Rub out the bit of egg line inside the leaves.
Step 7: A dab of mustard
In front of the cut half draw a small blob of mustard with a pointy top.
Step 8: The table
Draw a line under the plate from well left to well right.
Step 9: White and yellow egg
Colour the egg white white, and the yolk and the mustard yellow.
Step 10: Green leaves, sky plate
Colour the leaves green, then the plate sky blue around the mustard and leaves.
Step 11: Ginger crumb coat
Colour the whole egg ginger around the leaves, and the ring around the white. Add brown crumb dots.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a Scotch egg, drawn by you.
