I love it. I'm lucky enough to have a friend who lives in Scotland, near a delish butcher who makes it to his own secret recipe - and I get a huge amount every Xmas for much cheaper than we pay in the supermarkets in NE England. I chop it & freeze it batches. I do the usual with it i.e. serve it with clapshot/roll into balls, breadcrumb it with whiskey sauce/stuff chicken breasts with it... does anyone else have any other recipe ideas for it?

imo you can't beat boiling one and serving with neeps and tatties.

How about frying a slice and serving it with a fry-up?

What on earth is clapshot please?
Clapshot with oatcakes

Clapshot is a traditional Scottish dish that originated in Orkney and may be served with haggis, oatcakes,[2] mince, sausages or cold meat.[3] It is created by the combined mashing of swede turnips and potatoes ("neeps and tatties") with the addition of chives, butter or dripping, salt and pepper; some versions include onions.
It has to be neeps and tatties!
sounds lovely. And any haggis i have had, had to be followed by more, and a large glass of whisky
I had to have a shot for the clap once, didn't like it lol.
I am weird! I have mine with mash and Heinz Baked Beans... hangs head in shame!!
lol our kid :-D

Clapshot really doesn't sound appealing (the name I mean)
not the name, but the ingredients do.
you can pan fry it and it goes well with smoked bacon and fried egg.....
I will have it any way it comes, I love it!

LOL @ Tonyav! I've had it with a fry up - as I had no black pud, it was lovely but OH didn't think so - felt it didn't match as the flavour was too strong. I wondered what it would taste like in a pie or as a replacement to mince in a mince-ish dish?
Puff pastry pasties, yummy
Pure sacrilege to do anything other than the traditional boiled haggis neeps and tatties.
aah, great minds, alba - sorry! - meg - it is a good alternative to black pudding for scallops, add a little samphire and a light mustard sauce/foam......
voddie and DT, could you kindly pop into food, there's a q about pork, thank you

(sorry for digressing)

What is Samphire? Never heard of it.
Isn't it funny how the purists resent any attempt to "improve" their dogmatic recipes.
My parents and brothers love it, I despise! best place is in the bin for me :P
P.S. Don't get me wrong, I do love the "boiled" and served with tatties and neeps version. But variety is the spice of life.
Use it to stuff chicken breasts and serve it with a creamy mushroom sauce
I think the recipe is called Balmoral chicken - it is actually very nice.
