Boil 5 eggs until hard-boiled, about 8-10 minutes.

Cool eggs in ice water, then peel them carefully.

Mix ground beef with dried sage, salt, red chili flake, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper in a bowl.

Flatten a portion of the beef mixture in your hand, place a peeled egg in the center, and wrap the meat around the egg.

Roll the meat-wrapped egg in flour, coating it evenly.

Dip the coated egg in a mixture of milk and beaten egg, ensuring it is fully covered.

Roll the egg in panko bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Preheat the air fryer and spray the basket with oil.

Place the breaded eggs in the air fryer and spray the tops with oil.

Air fry until golden brown and cooked through.
