neeps and tatties
Neeps and tatties is a traditional Scottish dish made from two main ingredients: neeps, which are turnips, and tatties, which are potatoes. The turnips are usually peeled, chopped, and boiled until soft, then mashed or pureed. The potatoes are prepared in a similar way, resulting in a creamy and comforting side dish.
This dish is often served alongside haggis, a savory pudding made from sheep's offal, and is a staple during celebrations like Burns Night, which honors the Scottish poet Robert Burns. Neeps and tatties provide a hearty complement to the rich flavors of haggis.
