Title: Today's Lunch: Haggis Pakora
Post by: Naga on January 26, 2013, 01:07 PM
I had about 250g of haggis left over from last night's dinner, so for a wee change, I made some haggis pakora...

CH Haggis Pakora is always on the menu at Ashoka so it is indeed a genuine SIR creation.  :D

They look great Naga.  ;D
Which recipe did you use?
I've made them before using the video from STV. I was sure that i posted it over a year ago but can only find fishcakes and lamb bhuna.  :-\

Bloody marvelous, I should think, Chris! :)

As it happens, CH, the pakoras and dip are genuine recipes from a genuine Glasgow chef.  ;) He demonstrated a few of his recipes on a Scottish Television lifestyle show a couple of years back. I don't know if anyone has posted this before, but here's the link (http://programmes.stv.tv/the-hour/food-drink/starters/153040-haggis-pakora/) to the video and recipe for anyone who's interested. :)

Ooops! I see Frank got in before me!

At the risk of getting pelters from you, Axe, it tastes like haggis! :) It's savoury and slightly hot on the palate and there's no such thing as too much haggis! Try some next time you're at the supermarket - it'll be on offer now that Burn's Night is over for another year.

I was expecting as much  ;)  I must give it a go, i've just never got my head round it. Took me years to try black pudding and now I can't get enough of the stuff!

Haggis in a curry is very reminiscent of Haleem which can have wheat and/or barley as well as lentils.
Go easy on it though. It can become quite heavy after a few mouthfuls.  ;)
That is unless you make a Pakora curry.  :D
Cant comment on the neeps, they're one of two of my most hated vegetables!  :o

Made some haggis pakora tonight from the STV clip recipe - awesome!!!

Used the same batter to do some chicken pakora too - very nice :) It seemed to stick better to the chicken than the haggis - don't know why.
