Onyimeme,
I believe you might be thinking about this:
Flour
Sugar (to taste)
Salt (a pinch)
Baking powder
water
Butter
Eggs (boiled)
Vegetable oil
Tools
flat surface or board
rolling pin
knife
deep frying pan
perforated spoon
Method
remove shell from your boiled eggs,
sift flour and baking power together,
add sugar and salt with the flour mixture,
add butter to the flour mixture and knead together till it becomes like bread crumps,
add water and mold into dough,
split dough into sections and move to the clean flat surface,
using the rolling pin, roll out the dough to any thickness (depending on how thick u want your egg rolls),
put your egg at the center of the rolled out dough
wrap the dough round the egg (still on the flat surface)
pack excess tip of dough together and cut off with a knife
Roll the (art work) in a clock-wise manner on the flat surface to give the round shape and to repeat the process above if you have more than one egg
heat your vegetable oil
put in the egg roll for frying (deep frying required)
reduce the heat to give room for even frying
fry till golden brown or desired colour

Is this what you are refering to:
(I know this as a scotch egg)
sausage meat (turkey, pork or italian sausage),
Seasonings (optional but I use sage, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper)!.
8 shelled hard-boiled eggs
1/2 cup flour
1 medium egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups fine breadcrumbs, for coating
enough oil fr frying (Groundnut or Canola)
-In a small bowl combine sausage meat with sesaonings!.
-Divide sausage into 8 equal portions, flatten each portion to about 1/8-inch thickness!.
-Roll each egg in flour and place on top of each sausage patty!.
-Use each sausage patty to wrap around each egg until it is completely encased, pressing edges together to seal (wet or floured hands make this easier as the sausage geets really sticky)!.
-Beat the egg in a shallow dish and place breadcrumbs on a flat plate!.
-Dip each sausage-coated eggs in beaten egg and roll in crumb
place eggs in oil and fry till golden brown turning it every now and again so it browns evenlyWww@FoodAQ@Com
