This vegan haggis recipe is a tasty and innovative take on the classic Scottish dish. Made with a combination of oats, lentils, mushrooms, and a variety of flavorful herbs and spices, this recipe offers a savory, satisfying meal that's both easy to make and packed with nutritious ingredients. Whether you are a vegetarian or simply looking for a healthy alternative to traditional haggis, this recipe is sure to delight your taste buds and satisfy your hunger.

Instructions

1.Boil the green lentils in plenty of water for approx 30mins - or until soft.
2.While the lentils are cooking, saute the onion and mushrooms in margarine until soft but not brown.
3.Put the pinhead oats, red lentils and textured vegetable protein into a large bowl along with the yeast extract, the sautéed mushrooms and onions and any juice left from cooking.
4.When the lentils are ready, add them to the bowl too.
5.Stir the mixture well before adding the hot stock and then the remaining herbs, spices, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce/ketchup and the lemon and lime juice.
6.Mix very well - you want everything to get very sticky and gloopy.
7.Put the mixture into a well-greased bowl and smooth top - but don't let it spread all over the bowl bottom and leaving a gap of at least an inch at the top as it may expand.
8.Put the bowl into your steamer and steam for around 1 1/2 hours.
9.If you haven't got a steamer, put the mixture into a large greased oven-proof dish with a well-fitting lid and bake in 180c oven for 2 -2 1/2 hours - you want the haggis to be cooked right through.
10.After removing the vegan haggis from the steamer or oven, pour a couple of tablespoons of whisky over the top (if liked) to give it a smoky flavor and cover to keep warm until serving.
