I had to google to find out what lobes were. I was hoping it wasn't made with 45% lamb ears

Haggis curry???

Hmmmmm.... well I'd give it a go. I've had it fried in a roll and on a pizza, so I guess curried is the next logical step...

I reckon it would be either absolutely amazing or completely disgusting. I want to find out!!

Sounds yummy!!

Decent haggis has a nice peppery bite to it anyway, so adding a few more spices can only improve things

Could I deep fry it?

You probably couldn't deep fry a haggis curry!

You can get deep fried haggis balls from virtually any takeaway in Scotland though.

Really? None of the chippies in my town do them

They do battered fried haggis pudding though. None of this wee jessie balls rubbish, a great big fat pudding

Hehe! Sounds good. Almost every takeaway I went to in Edinburgh had them though. Perhaps I was generalising too much!

When I made Haggis on Burns night, my wife (who is a Filipino) had hers with some rice and the condiment of fish sauce with crushed chillis. They have a dish over there similar to haggis, called Sisig. It comes on a sizzling plate with onions and some spices.

Haggis Curry. :eek:

It does say something about the chippies in Scotland that I now assume that haggis' default state is battered and deep fried (entire, no stupid balls).

I can't remember there ever being a time in my life when haggis hasn't been on the menu in them, along with burgers, pizzas, pies etc.

I always find haggis pakora tasty so I can't imagine haggis curry being bad (surely it would be similar to a mince curry?), but I wouldn't be eating it out of a tin!

49% lamb lobes... Mmm...

haggis curry isn't going to be far off a keema surely? if i see it, i'm gonna buy it!

aceface57 · 17 Jul 2013 at 14:23

Will have to get a can to try some of this. Love haggis.

this si what I was thinking..it would be just like keema in rice

you could do Haggis pilau

in theory you could put it in other dishes that simply use mince

I cook a lovely bolognese but use the sausage meat from good quality toulouse sausages..just split them when raw and fry up the meat..same with pork and chorizo sausages..just makes a nice change
