?? There are plenty of haggis recipes in Harl. 279 & 4016.   Here's just
one example.

Harleian MS. 279 - Leche Vyaundez

xxv.  Hagws of a schepe.  Take [th]e Roppis with [th]e talour, & parboyle
hem; [th]an hakke hem smal; grynd pepir, & Safroun, & brede, & 3olkys of
Eyroun, & Raw kreme or swete Mylke:  do al to-gederys, & do in [th]e grete
wombe of the Schepe, [th]at is, the mawe; & [th]an se[the hym an serue
forth ynne.


25.  Haggis of a sheep.  Take the Guts with the tallow, & parboil them;
then hack them small; grind pepper, & Saffron, & bread, & yolks of Eggs, &
Raw cream or sweet Milk:  put all together, & put in the great stomach of
the Sheep, that is, the stomach; & then seethe him and serve forth in.
