Preparing our haggis is a stress-free and straightforward process. Wrap your haggis tightly in foil and place it in a large saucepan of cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer very gently, or you risk bursting this. Cook the recipe for one hour for every 500g. It will take approximately one hour to cook from frozen or 45 minutes from thawed. This pre-made meal is perfect for a quick meal.
This gentle cooking method ensures the haggis maintains its shape while heating through thoroughly, delivering optimal taste and texture every time.
Our product is made fresh with quality ingredients, giving you a genuine taste of Scottish food right here in Australia. Whether you’re curious about what haggis is made of or want to try something new, our butchers ensure each batch delivers rich flavour and consistency.
