Recipes Full Scottish Breakfast with an Indian Twist Info

Full Scottish breakfast with a variety of Indian spices and condiments

Indian food is hugely popular in the UK in modern times and has had a very significant effect on our wider food culture. It is this fact that led to me coming up with this variation on a fried or full Scottish breakfast, a dish which already comes in many different forms in hotels, restaurants and homes around Scotland. There are a few ingredients which are almost always included on the breakfast plate - particularly the breakfast trinity of sausage, bacon and egg - but a great many more which are only found some of the time. What I have done here is take some of the most popular full Scottish breakfast inclusions and cook/serve them in a way that gives the finished dish a very Indian twist.

Lorne sausage, black pudding and Ayrshire middle bacon

Ingredients per Breakfast

1 Scottish Lorne/sliced sausage
2 slices of Ayrshire middle bacon (or 2 rashers of ordinary back bacon)
1 slice of black pudding
2 tablespoons Scottish rapeseed oil
1 teaspoon medium curry powder
2 eggs
1 ounce butter
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon freshly chopped coriander (cilantro), plus a little extra to garnish
1 mini garlic and coriander naan bread
1 tablespoon Indian spiced onions
1 tablespoon (or as desired) mango chutney

Curry powder added to frying oil for breakfast meat elements

Directions

Pour the rapeseed oil (alternatively vegetable or sunflower oil, not olive oil) in to a large, non-stick frying pan and add the curry powder. Gently bring up to a medium heat, stirring the curry powder through the oil with a wooden spoon. Do not let the pan get too hot or the curry powder will burn and become bitter.

Starting to fry Lorne sausage and black pudding in curry oil

Lay the sausage and black pudding in the pan and put an ovenproof plate in to your oven at its lowest setting.

Lorne sausage and black pudding frying on second side

Fry the sausage and black pudding for four or five minutes each side over a gentle heat until cooked. Using oven gloves, take the plate from the oven, lift the items on to it and return to the oven to keep warm.

Bacon is fried in same oil as sausage and black pudding

The bacon should now be fried in the same frying pan for two or three minutes each side until done as you like it.

Eggs broken in to saucepan for scrambling

Break the eggs in to a samll saucepan. Add the butter and the turmeric and scramble carefully over a low to medium heat, stirring all the time with a wooden spoon.

Chopped coriander is added to spicy scrambled egg

Heat the naan bread per the instructions on the pack. This only takes around thirty seconds to a minute. Stir the teaspoon of coriander carefully through the scrambled egg.

Mini naan bread is laid first on serving plate

Lay the naan bread on the serving plate and spoon the scrambled egg on top.

Recipes Potted Scottish Salmon - An Easy and Tasty Fish Spread Info

Poached Scottish salmon potted in dill herb butter A few weeks ago, I saw a programme on TV about potted shrimps, showing the full process from catching the shrimps, to cooking them to potting them for eating. It reminded me of how I made several variations of jellied conger eel last summer to delicious effect and I got to wondering how I could use the general concept to come up with a Scottish version of potted shrimp using a typically Scottish fish/seafood. I did consider langoustines first of all but sadly couldn't get hold of any so I came up with the perhaps slightly unorthodox idea of using salmon. The results were as good as I could ever have hoped for and this is a concept I will be doing a lot of experimentation with in future. Scottish salmon and flavourants ready for poaching Ingredients (Makes 4 Small Ramekins/Servings) 6 ounce Scottish salmon fillet, skin on 1/2 small white onion, peeled and sliced 1 bay leaf 6 to 8 whole black peppercorns Salt Combination of 2 parts ...

Recipes Scotch Lamb Burgers with Mint Sauce and Deep Fried Tattie Wedges Info

Beautiful, succulent and tasty lamb burgers When you buy a burger from a fast food outlet, it is likely it will have been made with beef, pork, or a combination of the two - as well as a number of potentially very unsavoury ingredients which you would probably prefer not to hear or think about... Even when burgers are prepared at home, beef or pork are the preferred meats usually used. If you're looking for an alternative for your burgers, you can't do better than use lamb. The prepared burgers are so tender and sucuulent, you may actually never consider using beef or pork again. Chopping potatoes in to wedges Ingredients 2 or 3 medium floury/starchy potatoes 1/2 pound minced/ground lamb Salt and pepper 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary Vegetable oil for frying 2 soft bread rolls 1 tablespoon (approximately) mint sauce Potato wedges are steeped in cold water Directions The potato wedges are prepared in three stages. Begin by halving each potato and chopping it in to wedges. Note that...

Recipes Haggis and Scottish Root Vegetable Stew Info

A Tasty if Unusual Accompaniment to Haggis Haggis with Scottish root vegetable stew Haggis is of course most commonly served simply with tatties (potatoes) and neeps (Swede turnip/rutabaga). The tatties and neeps may be served relatively plain or they may combined to form clapshot, where they are mashed together with chives, butter and white pepper. As experimenting with food in so many different ways is one of my greatest passions in life, I decided on this particular occasion to serve the haggis not only with tatties and neeps but with a few other popular Scottish root vegetables in the form of a hearty vegetable stew. Individual portion haggis The quantity of vegetable stew I have prepared here will make for two large portions or up to four medium portions. The amount of haggis you therefore prepare should be adjusted accordingly. Ingredients (2 Generous Portions) 2 individual haggis servings 1 small Swede turnip/rutabaga 2 medium to large carrots (or equivalent size combination) 8 ...
