My mum Boil a mixture of anything you like for about six hours and call it Scotch broth I like Mike Myer's quote from So I Married an Axe Murderer... "I believe most Scottish cooking is based on a dare"
However, if you have to make something Scottish, shortbread is my choice.
http://southernfood.about.com/od/shortbr... Add one pint guinness to a chilled mug. Repeat. mince and tatties,,good auld sunday standby,
stovies is another one.

yummy!!!! Try "Stovies".
Boil potato , onion , and minced beef in a beef bouillon (In Scotland we use OXO cubes ) all together in the one pot for about 25 mins.Then thoroughly mash all up.Serve hot.
Awfy braw ! Only scot-irish by descent but dad claimed this receipe was passed down from generations ago. I've never heard of anyone else having it so I guess it was the poor man's way (they were all farmers) of not letting anything go to waste.
Basically you make oatmeal. Once done you spread it on a plate (like you do fudge) & refrigerate until hardened enough to slice. Then you cut into slices and fry preferably in bacon grease. Once done there are two options. Add salt and use it in place of meat with your eggs (my preference) or for a treat cover in pancake syrup.
Everyone goes EWWW, GROSS! until they try it. It's very good. My son hates oatmeal but loves it fixed like this. Make scotch eggs. The link has the recipe. They are good cold or at room temp,so a perfect take to school food. Don't make one for each person,figure an egg for every four people.After the eggs are made and cooled,cut them into four wedges and serve a wedge to each person. Don't know any but the oat meal one sounds appetizing. Grannies Guts

mince is the base for all thees dishes there are some very nice recipes on Traditional Scottish Recipes .....the URL is www.rampantscotland.com I'd hate to come to your house for a meal Crispy I think we would starve to death. Have you ever seen a Scotch egg?
They are only the size of an ordinary egg covered in sausage meat, so 1 between four is really stingy, I have 1 to myself and I'm not greedy.
Sorry kayluv for taking up your space, but I just had to make a correction here so that you know how big they are.
Here is the best site for you to look at:
http://www.scottishrecipes.co.uk/... you won't go wrong there. Best of luck. From a true Scot's Lass. Stovies the tradtional way is my fav scottish dish.
You need diced spuds, sliced onion, oxo cubes and some good lorne sausage, and finally a good helping of HP sauce and cover it all with water just covering the potatoes ect, bring it all to the boil, then turn down and leave to simmer for awhile til the potatoes start to break up. The general mistake is that minced beef is used which actually makes it a basic loose potato pie. What makes this dish Scottish is the lorne sausage, and is tradtionally served at weddings instead of a buffet. Excellent winter comfort food.
