Recipe

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan and sauté the onion over a low heat for five minutes until softened then add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.

  2. Add the crumbled haggis and stir to combine.

  3. Stir in the stock, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce and flour. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.

  4. Taste the filling and season with salt, pepper and a little grated nutmeg to taste. Cool the filling before using.

  5. Boil the potatoes and swede in two separate pots until tender. The swede will need to boil for a while longer than the potatoes.

  6. Mash the potatoes with 25g of butter and enough whole milk to create a smooth mash. Reserve 50g of mash to mix in with the swede. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  7. Mash the swede with 25g of butter and a little whole milk to create a smooth mash. Stir in some of the potato mash and mix together. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

  8. Fill the pies with the cooled haggis, filling three-quarters of the way up.

  9. Transfer the potato mash to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Do same with the swede mash.

  10. Pipe the mash over the pies, alternating between potato and swede. Place the pies on a heavy baking tray.

  11. Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C. Brush the pies with a little melted butter and sprinkle with the parsley.

  12. Cook for 30 minutes, until the pies are hot and the mash is lightly coloured.
