Scottish Omelette
- 50 grams of quick oats
- 150 millilitres of milk (you can use water)
- 1 egg
- 100 grams of haggis stuffing (without casing)
- seasoning to taste
- Instead of the haggis you could substitute, lardons, haslet, sausage, black pudding or other savoury filling of your fancy, which should be chopped into small pieces.
- Put the oats into a bowl and stir in the milk.
- Microwave on full power (850 watts) for 30 seconds.
- Meanwhile beat the egg in a cup so that the white and yolk are homogenised, you do not need to beat in air, though doing so would add sponginess to the final result.
- Stir the porridge mixture well and add the haggis, seasoning and beaten egg and stir well with a fork.
- Microwave on full power for 1 minute and stir well.
- Microwave on full power for 30 seconds and stir well.
- Repeat for further 30 seconds at a time, if required, until you have dumpling consistency.
- If your meat is well seasoned you may only need light seasoning, if not add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve and enjoy.
- This makes a moderate portion for one. Quantities can be adjusted according to the size of your appetite. Add more liquid if you prefer a sloppier porridge, this one comes up stiffer than usual due to the egg.
