  6. Heat the oil to 180°c and deep dry the haggis croutons until golden and cooked, approximately 3 minutes, remove and drain well on kitchen paper.
  7. Serve the pea soup with the haggis croutons on top.

Serving tip

If you do not want to make the croutons you could serve with just a small spoonful of cooked haggis in the centre of the soup. Also vegetarian haggis could be used instead.
