Vegetarian Haggis Hunt

[Lebanums]

Is anyone aware of anywhere selling vegetarian haggis?

I've been looking for weeks & even tried online, but none available 🙄

Tesco sainsburys

I tried them both last week & yesterday. It is like looking for one on the moors.

Same, lots of the meat version, but veggie is elusive.

I've found a decent looking recipe. Cooking is not my forte, but best endeavours count.

M&S sell it

I have one in my freezer..... but try SMBS on Lordship Lane, they usually have them, but might have run out by now?? Or forget veggie haggis (too salty) and have vegan black pudding instead.

 

Or go for the more traditional Scottish delicacy - powsowdie 🤢

I rarely eat meat, but surely veggie haggis just isn't haggis, and as for vegan black pudding .... 

You could just have the neeps?!

🤣

I love real black pudding and was very surprised by the vegan version....weirdly similar to a cheap ‘real’ version. We had homemade daal tarka and vaala urid daal with rotis yesterday, entirely vegan, entirely delicious 😋 Burn’s night was Scottish humour in a way, about how awful the food was..... of course Scottish cuisine now is amazing with all the produce, but then. Haggis 🤮

I've never tried vegan black pudding.. i'll have to seek that out!

I ended up making it myself, a recipe from bbc good food. It took 2 hours in total, but was pretty good.

I used to eat it years ago, when I was non veggie. It's a bit earthy for my liking.

A bit late to the party but Waitrose is usually a good bet for veggie haggis.

The thing I haven't had any joy finding in London is butteries - Scottish rolls that are a bit like flat, salty croissants.

Butteries - an Aberdonian speciality. A quick route to a heart attack. Very high fat, high salt flat bread also known as a rowie, designed to keep for a week on a fishing boat.

Very unhealthy - and totally delicious. Let me know if you ever come across any in London, Louise
