Clapshot

(Clapshaw)

Another traditional accompaniment for the famous Scottish haggis, the Orcadian clapshot or clapshaw is basically a more elaborate version of neeps and tatties: a dish of mashed potatoes and yellow turnip, typically mixed with milk, some butter or dripping, and chives, while some recipes even include onions.


As a side dish, clapshot is also often served with oatcakes, mince, sausages, and a number of other meat dishes, although it can also be enjoyed on its own.
