Skirlie Recipe
- Skirlie is one of my favourite dishes, it's really a side dish or a stuffing - but I could eat tonnes of the stuff! It's great to use as chicken/turkey stuffing and tastes even yummier when it soaks up the bird's juices. Skirlie is also a great addition to mince and tatties or stovies. The name comes from the way it's cooked - skirled in the pan. The book Scots Cooking: The Best Traditional and Contemporary Scottish Recipes by Sue Lawrence compares the hissing noise in the frying pan as the skirl of the pipes. Sue suggests serving Skirlie with Champit Tatties.
Christopher Trotter calls skirlie a good gravy soaker upper in his National Trust for Scotland cook book The Scottish Kitchen.
Skirlie is also called Scottish stuffing. My mum makes the best skirlie around:
Okay, now what is tatties and stovies? Sorry I don't understand English, LOL!

Reminds of something we call hash. When we have leftover pot roast we heat oil in a pan and after we cut up the roast a bit throw it all in there with the tatties, carrots, onions, etc. and chop as we fry it a bit.
The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge.
(Psa 19:1b-2)
