Although there are many recipes, it is normally made with the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver, and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately an hour. It somewhat resembles stuffed intestines (pig intestines otherwise known as chitterlings), sausages and savory puddings of which it is among the largest types. Most modern commercial haggis is prepared in a casing rather than an actual stomach. There are also meat-free recipes specifically for vegetarians which supposedly taste similar to the meat-based recipes.
absolutely disgusting.

Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish. Although there are many recipes, it is normally made with the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver, and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately an hour.

Most modern commercial haggis is prepared in a casing rather than an actual stomach. There are also meat-free recipes specifically for vegetarians which supposedly taste similar to the meat-based recipes.
Haggis is traditionally served with "neeps and tatties" (Scots: turnip and potatoes), each of these being mashed, separately. (The "neep" is the yellow vegetable called 'swede' in England and 'rutabaga' in the United States.)

It's a Scottish dish made of oatmeal and spices which is stuffed into an animal stomach and boiled. However, these days, haggis is now made with casing.
It is very ceremoniously served at a Scottish ceilidh, when a bagpiper comes out, dancers dance, and the chef makes a great show of cutting it with a long knife.
It was also a featured meat in "So I Married an Axe Murderer" .

Haggis is the minced innards of an animal cooked with oatmeal and suet. Traditionally, a meat pudding or sausage was make then boiled in the cleaned stomach bag of the sheep. Then boiled on top of that.

It's basically a sausage. A sheeps stomach is used as the skin around it (rather than the lining of the intestines typically used in America and other countries in Europe), and the filling is made of oats, herbs, and ground up meats.
Haggis is basically the same thing as scrapple, or "hazlet", or sausage.
Yum!

Do you mean Haggies? It's cross between a burger and hero.
It's often good, except in high school cafeterias.
