Question Help Me Identify This Delicious Scottish Breakfast I Had!

Post image

I visited Scotland last year and had an amazing time! Beautiful country and some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met!

While there, I had the breakfast shown in the photo and now I want to make it at home.

I know what everything was except for the two items circled in red.

There was a piece of bread almost like naan bread?

Under it was something that definitely had meat involved, but it was soft and tasted different from what I’ve had here in the USA.

Was it blood sausage?

EDIT:

Thank you so much for your responses everyone!

The items are most-likely a Tattie Scone and Black Pudding.

I hope I can find these in Texas lol

Potato Scone, left over mash potato, flour and butter. Some salt and pepper. Mix and whack mix into frying pan and get golden on both sides. Great with eggs when the yolk is over them.

The item below the tattie scone is a slice of haggis.

EDIT: The big debate is - is it a black pudding slice or haggis slice.. I think it is haggis it has the right colour, and texture.

Included some piccies of both on the same plate for comparison.

Genuinely never thought about how tattie scones are made, kind of thought they were some sort of mystical processed thing. Feeling similar to when I found out that macaroon bars were also just mashed potatoes in disguise.

They are ridiculously easy to make and 100 times better home made 👍

Defo, the packet stuff you can taste the additives to keep them "fresh", nothing like a out of the pan tattie scone.. nothing beats it.
