Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces beef sirloin steaks
- 300 grams haggis
- 25 grams unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 50 milliliters whisky
- 200 milliliters double cream
- 100 milliliters beef stock
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 to taste salt
- 1 to taste black pepper
Instructions
Season the sirloin steaks on both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.
Remove the steaks from the pan and set aside, covering them loosely with foil to rest.
In the same pan, add the haggis. Cook over medium heat, breaking it up with a spatula, until heated through and slightly crispy. Set aside but keep warm.
In a clean pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Carefully add the whisky, allowing the alcohol to evaporate (around 1 minute).
Pour the beef stock into the pan and stir to combine. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the double cream and Dijon mustard. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 4-5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
To serve, place each steak on a plate and top with a generous portion of the cooked haggis. Spoon the creamy whisky sauce over the top.
Serve immediately with traditional sides like mashed potatoes and green vegetables, if desired.
