Ballindalloch Haggis Mousselines With a Whisky, Cream and Onion

This lovely recipe is from a book called 'I Love Food' - by (an what a splendid name is this to have??!!!!) Clare MacPherson the Lady Laird of Ballindallock Castle - boy would I name drop if that was my name LOL. She simply describes this recipe as enhancing the haggis. PLEASE NOTE I have put 1 tblsp Glenfiddich where the actual recipe states 1 generous glass!!!!! Up to you. And, I am English so I call a turnip a turnip but up here in Scotland a turnip is a Rutabega, again take your pick! Show more
