"Civilized Haggis"

[James Hood]

'Have been challenged by a gourmand-ish colleague, to come up with (for a New Year's Eve dinner party) a recipe for "civilized haggis" which can be presented to those too squeamish or otherwise delicate of tummy for whom the real thing is "not an option."

Which will also "go" with the usual brie & grapes, shrimp cocktail, gouda puff, smoked salmon, et. al., traditional appetisers.

Thoughts of chopped sirloin and lamb as a base and cooked in a roasting pan are floating around in mind. Level of spicing and spices list are also sought.

Other vegetables to be included?

Something says this is an opportunity to "spread Scottish culture" by deviating from the purity of a traditional dish.

Any thoughts, Honourable and Noble Rabble?

Thankee, Mateys.
