this was quite yummy. this is the second time i have made this for my burns night supper. i too let the onions brown a bit, and i add a lot of chives. this year, since i had a package in the freezer of mixed cuber rutabaga and winter squash, i threw both in with the potatoes. the flavor was great. i made it in advance and put it in the oven to heat up. this freezes well too. i put some away in the freezer so a can have an easy casual haggis supper later on.

Absolutely 100% real Scottish comfort food - made and devoured for our Burns Night Tribute Supper - thanks to you Linds! I only had frozen chives, and I added a small shallot for extra onion flavour......every thing else was made and added as posted. Thank Ma Broon next time you bump in to her - excellent Glasgow fare! Merci beaucoup encore! FT:-)

Hello, thought I should update this page a wee bit now we have a new furbaby called Bismila as well as our beloved Maddie who is the star of the photo. I live with my husband Keir in the North East of Scotland between Inverness and Aberdeen, it is very beautiful here. My DH is a keen salmon fisherman and is in the right place to do this! I ran my own pubs and restaurants for many years until arthritis made catering just too much for me, I am 'semi' retired now and can't seem to drag myself away from this site. I have met some wonderful people here and made good friends for which I am eternally grateful.
