Method
- Preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Remove the outer packaging from the haggis then prick all over with a fork, wrap in foil like a baked potato and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
- To serve, split open the haggis with a sharp knife and spoon the contents over neeps and tatties or serve separately.

Neeps are turnips, not Swedes. Swedes are emotionless robots who like to harbour war criminals and have very few endearing qualities. Plus, how is this a recipe? If people aren't intelligent enough to read the cooking instructions on food then they're hardly going to have more success in searching for cooking instructions, let alone reading them, from a website. Pathetic shyte on yer honest sonsie face! From a Scotsman, Chieftain o' the puddin' race!
I haven't tried this but had good ratings.
1 large knob butter, for frying
250 g shallots, finely chopped
100 ml whisky, preferably Monkey Shoulder
250 ml stock, preferably veal stock
1 tsp plain flourFor the sauce: melt the butter in a frying pan, add the shallots and fry until golden brown.
9. Pour in the whisky and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, then add the stock and return to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
10. Slowly add the flour to the sauce, stirring constantly to remove any lumps. At this point you can either strain the sauce through a sieve for a smooth finish, or leave the shallots in for a more intense flavour.
I have been using haggis for years as a stuffing for chicken/turkey much nicer than sage and onion etc. empty a tin or fresh haggis into a pot heat slowly till softened, leave to cool then roll into balls. Bake in a moderate oven for 20 mins and serve with roast poultry with loads of gravy. All my English friends love it.
message for PISTACHE... believe it or not tinned haggis is actually very good, "GRANTS" (392g cost £1.34 in Tesco) make one and is sold in many supermarkets here... maybe through ebay or online shopping you could get some sent out to swiitzerland? I usually keep a tin or 2 in my storecubpoard, I empty it out of the tin into a suitable bowl mash it about a wee bit and microwave it till piping hot.... it really is almost as good as the real thing, especially when you cant get the real thing! hope this helps! x
