How to make Haggis, Neeps & Tatties with Whisky Sauce
Prep time
Difficultyeasy
Serves2
Ingredients
1 x 454g F&Co Haggis
1 small swede (neeps) plus 2 peeled carrots peeled & cut into cubes
3 large (tatties) King Edward or Maris piper potatoes, peeled & cut into cubes
50g cold diced butter
Splash hot milk
Nutmeg to grate
Chopped chives to garnish
Sea salt & cracked black pepper
For the sauce:
1 shallot finely chopped
1 clove garlic sliced
150ml rich chicken stock (essential cuisine)
1tsp. smooth Dijon mustard
20g cold diced butter
Splash single malt whisky
For the haggis, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil then place the haggis in the pan and very gently simmer for 45 minutes reaching a minimum core temperature of 72°C - top tip: wrapping the haggis in foil will help prevent the haggis from bursting in the pan as it cooks.
Whilst the haggis is cooking, boil the potatoes in one pan & the swede & carrot in another; add a little salt to each of the pans and boil until tender - this should take approximately 30 minutes.
Drain the mash separately; adding half the butter to each pan & the milk to the tatties, season to taste with salt and pepper, adding a little nutmeg to the tatties.
For the sauce, soften the shallot & garlic in a small amount of butter then add the stock & mustard, reduce by half then whisk in the remaining cold butter, finish by adding the whisky to taste, pass through a fine strainer and keep warm.
To serve, spoon the haggis onto the warm serving plates alongside the neeps and tatties sprinkled with a few chopped chives, serve the sauce in a jug on the side & enjoy.
