Gimlet Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Bought a haggis earlier today and reminded myself how partial I am to them. I have mine with some buttered cabbage and carrots or broad beans. Also found its very good with a drop of firey carribean chilli sauce. (I'm not Scottish so it isn't treason). How do you eat yours? About the only brand I see down here is Halls- good but a bit salty. I'm sure there are as many recipes for haggis as there are butchers in Scotland, so any other recommendations?

Laird Lugton Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Look for Macsweens or Simon Howie (Sainsburys). I sometimes have peppercorn sauce on mine with mashed potatoes and mashed turnip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun4860 Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 McSweens..... As good as they come.... many ways to eat them... make it like a cottage pie but make sure you put plenty of gravy in it (quite sloppy) or it goes dry Ive done the pakora thing, nice just fried with bread and butter, traditional with neeps and tatties.... my next effort is going to be mixed with sausage meat and made into scotch eggs..... i love haggis With roast beef, mash and Brussels, or in a roll with a fried egg and bacon.... Mmmmm! Oh yes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
