Haggis ~ I made it Myself

[pointblank0]

Yeah WHATEVER! Porridge gun ammo in tesco! You can only get the inert packets of rolled oats from the Rat Packs direct from NATO. Tesco porridge just doesn't have the punch...and the trajectory isn't right.

It inspired me Weasel ,for dinner tonight i had a plate of pan fried black pudding topped with two fried eggs,,,as for the "elk nose Jelly" sorry but the name puts me off on that one ,,i just picture a moose with a running snotty nose,,rename it and ill try it.

Now your talking!!!!

I'm doing some pig tails tonight--- how ever the Haggis was easy;
I was fortunate in that a store over here sells "Lamb Pluck" it contained a heart, liver,kidneys & lungs which is everything you need. I also added some beef heart. I precooked the meat for an hour or so (2). I had the lungs in with it so I did not keep the liquid. ( the lungs were small and next time I will boil them by them selves - bigger ones have the wind pipe (sheep) which you hang over the pot to drain while it cooks.) I pressure cooked some oxtail & heart to add to it and for stock which you also use in it. After cooking everything I simply ground it all up finely. Into this you mix the oatmeal which you toast ( I didn't do this properly) and spices, I think mostly regular pepper ( a bit of salt), but there are a lot of different recipes out there. I also added a bag of suet and four ground onions. I mixed this all up. I buggered around with sausage casing - don't bother it will burst. I put half of it into heavy tinfoil and folded up the ends and top. I put it in a pan in the oven, kept water in the pan and cooked for some hours at low heat. The secound lot with more pepper I put on a low stand so water was under it. I think if you can find or substitute similar ingredients you can alter it to your own preference. Some add a bit of Scotch, I didn't have any. The internet will give a lot of variations and measurements. I sort of went by eye -- and for a quick taste whle preparing it , simply fry a small amount then add further spices as needed.

We have lots of moose over here, I thin one nose would make a lot - how is it done ?

How about Elk Haggis -- you have everything you need except oatmeal & spices in a massive quantity ~

Ben,

This recipe i found on the net and sounds much better:

Kapura Bakra Masala Recipe

This is a simple curried stir-fry damp curry made with testicles. You can use either lamb or goat testicles.Khasia Kapura or Kapoora refers to testicles. In United States, the lamb testicles are normally called 'lamb fry'. '"Rocky Mountain oysters' is a common name for bull testicles. Choose testicles from young lamb or baby goat (kid). Older the animal, more intense is the flavor.

Ingredients

1. Lamb Testicles: 1 Pound3. Ghee: ¼ cup4. Onions, Peeled finely chopped: 2 cups5. Garlic, peeled crushed: 3 Cloves6. Ginger, peeled chopped fine: 1"x1"7. Serrano, white pith removed to reduce heat, chopped: 28. Turmeric powder: ¼ teaspoon9. Coriander powder: 2 teaspoon10. Cumin powder: 1 teaspoon11. Cayenne ground: ¼ teaspoon12. Black pepper ground: ¼ teaspoon13 Salt: ¼ teaspoon14. Water: 2 Tablespoon15. Juice of half fresh lime

Method

1. Wash testicles. Cut each testicle along the middle in half. Peel off the skin and discard it. Cut each half length-wise to result in two oval shape slices. Now, you have peeled each testicle and cut into 4 oval shaved slices. Soak sliced testicles in cold salted water (4 cups of water with 2 Tablespoon of salt) for about one hour. This will help remove blood. Drain and wash in clean water. Pat dry with paper towel.2. Heat Ghee in a frying pan3. Add onions. Fry till edges turn brown. 5 minutes4. Add Garlic, Ginger and Serrano.

Sorry to all you people in the northern hemisphere but I'm with Ben on this issue as down here in Australia I have always found enough good meat that is between the nose and the bum that there is no need to experiment with things like Elk nose jelly! And does anyone else wonder just how desperate the person was who first came up with some of these really werid concoctions ??? I also note that Spotter may ban some of the more dangerous recipes that may be placed on this forum Well done Alan ! you and Ben are most welcome to come to OZ and have a BBQ at my place [ real meat only ] . As my Dad used to say he loves cow's there deliicous

[LCplCombat]
