Cooking a haggis, no matter how fearsome it looks, is a terribly easy process if you roast it. And it means that there's no danger of it bursting as so often happens if you boil it.

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4. Wrap your haggis in foil and bake it in the oven for about 45 minutes per 450g (1lb). When cooked, remove the foil and transfer to a plate. Serve accompanied by 'neeps and tatties', remembering the whisky and bagpipes (a CD perhaps) for the full Scottish effect

For where to buy haggis locally or by mail order, search FoodFinds for FoodLovers Approved shops and producers.
