These delicious pastry parcels are a great haggis dish to serve as finger food or with a main meal for Burns Night.
Ingredients
- 4 x 100g slice of haggis (you can buy this cheap and ready-packaged from supermarkets)
- 400g filo pastry
- 2tbsp light oil
- 1 beetroot slices of beetroot, drained
- 4tbsp cranberry and caramelised red onion chutney
- Egg wash (1 beaten egg)
- 1 leek
Method
These parcels can be made to any size, if you want small finger bite-sized or larger main course size.
Unroll the pastry and place it on a flat surface. Take out just the number of sheets you need for the recipe and put the rest of it back in the fridge.
Carefully layer three – four sheets of the pastry, brushing each of the layers very lightly with oil. In the centre of each sheet, place a slice of haggis and top with sliced beetroot and the cranberry and caramelised red onion chutney.
Wrap the pastry into a parcel and tie with a narrow ribbon of leek. Brush the parcels with egg wash, place on baking tray and bake in a pre-heated moderate oven 160ºC (320ºF, gas mark 2-3) for approximately 25 mins until thoroughly cooked and golden brown.
