Bashed neeps and haggis

shogs

One of my favourite meals & living in Scotland can easily get hold of it. It is turnip but I normally mix carrots in with it (cook them together (maybe add the carrots after turnip has been cooking for a bit)) and mash together.
Yum, yum. Can even get haggis in a tin which I find not too bad.

It is a very strange looking meal though. I can never resist the urge to serve it up in three hemisperical "dollops" - one dark brown, one pale cream and the other orange!

:rotfl: :rotfl: I agree it doesn't look like my normal meals! I must admit I was dubious when I tried haggis for the first time last year, and although I find it a little heavy I do really enjoy it!

And, of course, you can also wind people up as to what it actually is.

The wild haggis (Latin name Haggis Scotia) is a small furry creature, with the unique adaptation to mountain life of having shorter legs on one side of its body than the other. This enables it to run around mountains whilst neither descending or ascending. Of course, it can only do this in one direction. Whilst this is enough to escape from most natural predators, human hunters soon learned to simply run around the mountain in the opposite direction.

Also, both ends of the haggis look identical, which makes it impossible for a predator to know which way the haggis is going to start to run. Unfortunately, whilst this confuses the predator, it sometimes confuses the haggis and they have been known to sit on their own faces and suffocate themselves.

Mind you, if your face looked like your *rs*, ...

Hi all,

Does anyone have a recipe for Veggie haggis??? I have found some but the all contain nuts and i cannot eat them. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Michaela

Can you eat seeds? You could easily replace nuts with seeds (pumpkin or sunflower), otherwise you could omit the nuts and perhaps put some veggie mince (mixed with oats, spices and some fat). Then treat as per recipe. Good luck!

Sorry, I don't have a recipe, I don't know anyone who makes their own haggis....but I did see vegetarian haggis in sainsbugs yesterday, you could check to see if it has nuts in it. I don't think it was too expensive, and you could make a shepherdless pie with half of it, if a whole one is too big for your use.
