Directions
| Step 1 | Pre-heat oven to 200C/400F/Gas mark 6 |
| Step 2 | Wash the potatoes and then roll them in the coarse sea salt whilst they are still damp. |
| Step 3 | Prick the skin all over with a fork and place them on a baking tray - bake in the pre-heated oven for 1 and a quarter hours, or until crisp on the outside and soft to the touch. |
| Step 4 | Microwave the haggis slices according to the instructions on the packet. Use meat or vegetarian haggis according to taste and dietary requirements. |
| Step 5 | Place the potatoes on a plate and cut them in half; mash the inside flesh a little bit and then add some butter, salt and pepper, before adding the hot haggis. |
| Step 6 | Optional extras are baked beans or grated cheese too, which is wonderful with the vegetarian haggis. |
