Haggis Balls with Whisky Sauce, Haggis Balls with Whisky Sauce
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Haggis balls are a very popular starter dish on restaurant menus here in Scotland and it's not something we've ever made at home.   I don't often buy haggis except in January to have for our Burns supper, however, it is available throughout the year in butchers and supermarkets.   You can also buy packets of sliced haggis and you may find it in breakfast packs.  

Having enjoyed our Burns supper last year with my mum and step dad when I'd made a whisky sauce to go with our main course, we'd had leftover haggis and whisky sauce and I made chicken balmoral to use up the leftovers.   So this year, ahead of Burns night, we thought we'd try out our whisky sauce again, along with making some haggis balls to see how they went together...they are sooooo good!!   

David made them from a recipe on BBC Good Food which he adapted slightly - only one egg was needed, along with slightly less flour than stated and he increased the breadcrumbs so that he could double coat them.   He also found that only 2 minutes frying was needed. 

Tips

  • Use leftover haggis from your Burns supper, or buy a pack of 4 haggis slices to make 12 perfectly sized balls.
  • The full whisky sauce recipe is enough for 2 people to enjoy with their Burns supper, chicken balmoral another night and to go with the haggis balls.   If you're only making the sauce to go with the haggis balls, i'd suggest that you make a quarter.
