Haggis Neeps and Tatties!


By A Glug of Oil.... (Visit website)



Haggis is traditionally eaten in Scotland to celebrate the life and poetry of Robert Burns and is known as 'Burns' night.
It is always held on the 25th January, which was his birthday.

Haggis is a kind of savoury sausage meat which has lovley spices added.
Now, all that said, I personally can only cope with the haggis from M&S that comes in a plastic bag instead of a sheep's stomach!



Haggis is served with 'neeps' which is swede (or rutabaga to some people) boiled in slightly salted water and then mashed with a little nutmeg.
The 'tatties' are just mashed potatoes.

Some people serve haggis with a dish called clapshot which originated in the Orkney islands. To make this you just mix equal amounts of mashed potato together with the mashed swede and stir in some snipped chives.

How knowledgeable am I you may be thinking?!
All with thanks to the Internet!
