Protein Shock

A couple of nights ago, after having a beer, Mandy and I wandered around in search of the hamburger bomb. Hidden behind the main road, enveloped in African darkness, the “restaurant” (and I use that term loosely) has all types of protein – meat, fish, chicken, etc. But the star of the menu is definitely the “hamburger,” aka – the “hamburger bomb” Served over a refreshing salad, a hamburger bomb is a hard-boiled egg, wrapped in ground meat, and fried. It was actually delicious and my protein-deprived body was happy for the evening. For all of those thinking of visiting Siguiri in the next couple of years, I promise to take you to this marvelous hidden “hamburger” joint.

Now you really can’t wait to come to Africa, can you??

Does the hard-boiled egg still have its shell? Okay, that might be a really dumb question, but does it? Does the deep frying change the egg at all - or is it like how when you deep fry a corn dog the hot dog isn't suddenly like all crispy like a hot french fry?
PS- Love ya!
