Love Haggis but it is so filling

These are tiny, Sandy - a starter - so not filling at all.

We have Beef Olives, stuffed with haggis on the menu and they sell very well!

Hiya all,
Am affraid i would have to back out from the come dine with me if you gona have thai food, As quite a lot has peppers in it which i have an alergy,


lol

My menu would be simple

Fruit thicky or pawn cocktail

Swedish meatballs on a bed of rice with tomato sauce

Caramelised Seasonal fruit with vanilla ice cream.


I think that would work and be very simple

Linz, that is a shame cos Thai food is my favourite. Just tell who ever is cooking "no peppers". I think I could live off it, I love hot and spicy foods.

It's a real pain in the royal @rse because as it isn't one of those things that is a reconised alergy (like dairy, glutten, nut) manufactor don't always specify it in large print, So i need to be really carefull (especially at the moment as i can't take tablets for it because of bump).

Manufactors have a habit of adding peppers to odd things so i have to me careful.

I love sweet and sour sauce but their is a common occurance for adding peppers in to the sauce at the moment.

but you're ok with aubergines, tomatoes and potatoes, Linz? It's probably the chilly powder added to a lot of foods.

[Fluffywelshsheep]

It's something to do with the skin and some kind of chemical they uses, Some times i am okay with organic or homeground ones but sometimes i get reactions to them.

so best to avoid altogether especialy at the moment.

I have just returned from Gujan-Mestras, near Arcachon - an area on the edge of a huge sheltered bay.  The programme of our visit (French dog club) included numerous wonderful meals, mostly of seafood.  I was eventually tempted to try oysters fro the first time and was pleasantly surprised.  I had always said I would never eat anything that was still alive.  Never say never

[northfifeduckling]

there are 2 things I can live without - slugs, even if cooked the River Cottage way and eggs which are near hatching day (like they love them in the Phillippines)...
