Have some? Better Call Paul!
Ingredients-
1 sheep's stomach or ox secum, cleaned and thoroughly, scalded, turned inside out and soaked overnight in cold salted water
heart and lungs of one lamb
450g/1lb beef or lamb trimmings, fat and lean
2 onions, finely chopped
225g/8oz oatmeal
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp ground dried coriander
1 tsp mace
1 tsp nutmeg
water, enough to cook the haggis
stock from lungs and trimmings
Preparation-
-Wash the lungs, heart and liver. Place in large pan of cold water with the meat trimmings and bring to the boil. Cook for about 2 hours.
-When cooked, strain off the stock and set the stock aside.
-Mince the lungs, heart and trimmings.
-Put the minced mixture in a bowl and add the finely chopped onions, oatmeal and seasoning. Mix well and add enough stock to moisten the mixture. It should have a soft crumbly consistency.
-Spoon the mixture into the sheep's stomach, so it's just over half full. Sew up the stomach with strong thread and prick a couple of times so it doesn't explode while cooking. Put the haggis in a pan of boiling water (enough to cover it) and cook for 3 hours without a lid. Keep adding more water to keep it covered.
-To serve, cut open the haggis and spoon out the filling. Serve with neeps (mashed swede or turnip) and tatties (mashed potatoes).
Arguments Haggis For or Against?
*It's offal. It's awful.
*Official ball of Scottish Rugby
* I'll take it Very Well Done...with ketchup
*Love it Paul's on his way over with a side dish of... 5 year freezer fish
*Oatmeal adds fiber, but so does shredded steel belted radials
*Scotland's answer to Kim Jong Un's nuclear warheads
*Not kosher, not halal, Not food
*Higher quality than a 12-pack of Dollar Store brand wieners
*Served on a muffin...it's Mc Haggis!
*Yes, didn't Steve McQueen star opposite one in 1958?
* Julia Child prepared one for Christmas...or was it Halloween?
*Hannibal Lecter recommends serving at dinner parties
*Your kids will eat if you tell them Spiderman brought it for them only
*Yes, I'd buy it but only if it's made butchering the Kardashians
*Phone before midnight and we'll include a second one for free
*GeneL had one removed recently
*Official mascot when Scotland secedes from the UK
*I'll eat it if Sean Connery does.
*Paraded roasted by townsfolks in Monty Python and the Holy Grail
*Attribution to Viking origins once caused war declared by Norway.
*Legendary inspiration for all Wednesday school cafeteria menus
*Scotland leads the world in haggis production, with no competition.
*Third most ordered gourmet item in hipster Williamsburg Brooklyn...and trending!
*Unexplained statement of "The real reason Scottish men wear kilts"
*Always somewhere on page 16 of most voluminous diner menus
*Did you say "sheep lungs"?
Looking forward to your response!
