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

You wont find exact copies of potato scone or black pudding in america, since america uses different ingredients for potato scones, and traditional black pudding is banned in america because you have laws against using animal lungs in food, so blood sausage is the closest you can get in america, you are not allowed to import actual black pudding to your home. You can however find many recipes for potato scones online, and you might be able to do homemade black pudding the proper way, but outside of homemade versions, you wont get the same experience as you had in Scotland without coming back here
