SC - VEGETARIAN HAGGIS

[Seton1355 at aol.com]

I am passing this along for any cook that is interested.  I got this off a 
vegetarian food list.

 (the traditional Scottish dish is usually made with heart, liver, kidney 
etc.. of sheep, and despite that very yummy).
 
 Veggie Haggis
 
 4 T canola oil
 50g organic rolled oats
 50g pinhead  or steelcut oatmeal
 50g chopped mixed nuts
 1 onion, finely chopped
 113g mushrooms, finely chopped
 1 carrot, finely chopped
 1 c. cooked kidney beans, drained and chopped
 ½ c red lentils
 50g vegetable suet
 1 T marmite
 1T ground black pepper
 1 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
 2 T each of chopped mixed fresh herbs (sage, thym, marjoram)
 pinch of grated nutmeg
 juice of 1 lime
 3 T whisky
 water
 
 
 Preheat the oven to 375F.   
In a large saucepan, heat 2T of oil and add the oats, oatmeal and nuts.
Cook over a medium-low heat, stirring, for about 3 minutes until toasted and 
golden.  Transfer to a bowl.
 In the remaining 2 T of oil, cook the onion, mushrooms and carrot gently for 
5 minutes until softened.  
Stir into the toasted oat  mixture with the remaining haggis ingredients and 
seasonings.
Cook for a few minutes more.  
Add 1 cup of water.  Mix well and transfer to an oven dish with a lid.
 Cover and bake for 45 minutes.  
Add more water if haggis seems a bit dry.
 
***note:  traditionally haggis is steamed (and definitely not veggie).  To 
steam the haggis, tie it up in a cheese cloth, put int in a pudding bowl, put 
the pudding bowl inside a saucepan filled with water halfway up the sides of 
the bowl, cover, and boil gently for a few hours.  Add more water if needed.
