Sheep's Haggis

Ingredients

Directions

Prepare the stomach

  1. Wash the large stomach in cold water, then plunge it in boiling water and scrape it clean.

  2. Soak the large stomach in cold water with a little salt overnight.

  3. Wash the pluck thoroughly.

Boil and trim

  1. Boil the small stomach with the pluck, leaving the windpipe attached and hanging over the pot edge for impurities to escape.

  2. Boil for 1.5 hours, then remove from the pot and let cool.

  3. Cut away the windpipe and any undesirable bits of skin or gristle.
