Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish made of sheep offal, onions, oats, and seasonings. The dish is often served with neeps and tatties. This updated version of the recipe features beer battered vegetarian haggis balls dipped in a whiskey mustard sauce. The crispy texture of the batter and the savory flavor of haggis paired with the sweet and tangy taste of the sauce create a perfect balance of flavors. This dish is perfect for whiskey lovers who want to try a Scottish dish with a modern twist.

Instructions

1.	In a mixing bowl, whisk together beer, flour, black pepper, and cayenne or paprika until combined.
2.	Cut macsweens vegetarian haggis into small balls.
3.	In a deep heavy skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4.	Coat each ball with the beer batter and carefully add them to the heated oil.
5.	Fry until golden brown, turning them occasionally to cook them evenly.
6.	Using a slotted spoon, transfer the haggis balls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
7.	In a mixing bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard and whiskey to create a whiskey mustard sauce.
8.	Serve the crispy haggis balls hot, with the sauce on the side.
