How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Thoroughly clean the paunch and soak in cold water for about 12 hours; turn inside out and set aside till required.
|
2. Put the pluck in cold water, bring to the boil and simmer for 1½ hours.
|
3. Remove from the water and cut off the pipes and gristle.
|
4. Grate half of the liver (the other half is not used) and mince the lights and the heart.
|
5. Mix in a basin with the oatmeal, suet and onions, season highly with salt and black pepper and moisten with the water in which the pluck was boiled.
|
6. Put the mixture in the paunch, leaving sufficient space for the oatmeal to swell, and sew up the opening.
|
7. Put in a large saucepan of hot water (adding milk if liked) and boil for 3 hours, taking care to prick with a needle as soon as the haggis begins to swell.

TIP:
|
Haggis is served without gravy or garnish and accompanied by mashed turnips ("neeps") and mashed potatoes, and the custom is to drink neat whisky with it.
