Has anybody had haggis this week ?

[TheTecknician]

Or at any other time ? Admittedly it's a delicacy I've never tried, whether traditional or vegetarian but I'm interested to know if haggis has much reach into Mumsnetville.

I don't remember Burns Night (or Week) being an event in the hospitality calendar until the last decade or so. Then again, I'm in Yorkshire so I expect it's different in Scotland. It's a way for the trade to start making some post-Christmas brass in the traditionally lean month of January.

I absolutely love haggis. Have it regularly

I find that baked beans go well with haggis. 😮

yes we had it yesterday and we eat it regularly. I wouldn't really expect an English person to eat haggis regularly.

Well of course. I’m in Ayrshire so there would be an inquest otherwise!

oh stop that ! 🤢😀

Indulge me. Are 'neeps' mashed turnip or swede or both ?

We had haggis stuffed chicken breast with whisky cream sauce this evening, as we missed Burns night. Love a Haggis supper from the chipper , preferably with beans, but that’s once a decade.

Another who prefers Simon Howie veggie haggis. Never cooked a whole real one - the smell 🤮

Mashed swede

Neeps = mashed swede

Had haggis, neeps and tatties tonight, delayed due to school event last night

Swede but we call it Turnip we also call Turnip Turnip just to add to the confusion .

Since I've shocked you with my bean comment...
Leftover haggis goes really well in a toastie.

Sorry - but vegetarian haggis is really not haggis.

I was a bit worried then that there wouldn’t be a haggis supper but there IS, phew! No cockaleekie soup to start or cranachan for pudding though 😕 but dancing and whisky yes 💃

I had Aldi haggis bites (wee scotch egg type of things with neeps and tatties included). Not great but usually love haggis. Got given haggis slices as a thank you present once.

Had it last night in Scottish church hall. Delicious.

That wouldn’t be weird at all but I live in Central Europe!

oh toastie is fine bur my god the beans!

Married to a Scot and living in Scotland. He and the kids had haggis, neeps and tatties on Wednesday. I made a haggis and chickpea curry last night with the leftovers.

Of course!

Leftovers are great in a pie or in a cheese toastie.

Or as haggis carbonara 😍

We had haggis, oven chips and peas the night before Burns Night. Breaking all the rules. Scot living in London.

Twice this week and there's still some left! Winning at life.

I did , I enjoyed it. I also really like swede/turnip but I only seem to have that at Burn's night .

Not Scottish but we had haggis last night.
It's taken me quite a few years to be persuaded (by DH, also not strictly Scottish but his Granddad was if that makes a difference!) to even try it. But it really is delicious! We have it with swede and potato mashed together and peas. DH swears by having brown sauce with it.

Haggis was originally English!

3x this week! This is enough, although tempted to try with beans.

Haggis mac n cheese hmmmmm.
