Recently in Aberdeenshire and our Scottish hosts cooked us a great meal of haggis off the bone ,neaps,tatties and something they called skirlie.
Does anyone have any idea what SKIRLIE is and how to make it as my husband is desperate to have some more .Thanks

Haggis off the bone?! Is that how they got you to eat it? ; ) I suppose one way or the other the meat hangs from some form of bone! Not very close to the bone though...

I prefer haggis on the bone myself. More flavour. Just look out for the shot. They're robust beesties, it often takes several rounds to bring one down..........

Didn't the Goodies do skit on wild free roaming haggis?

Well, of course if you get the farmed haggis, the shot isn't an issue. It's not very ethical though- in fact I think Jamie Oliver is launching a campaign against farmed haggis next Wednesday.
