How to make it keto
Request NO neeps (swede/rutabaga) and NO tatties (potatoes). Ask for extra green vegetables (e.g., cabbage, broccoli, green beans) instead. While traditional haggis contains oatmeal, the amount can be modest; confirm minimal oatmeal if possible, or account for it as a small carb contribution in a restaurant portion.
Watch out for
Oatmeal (traditional binder, quantity varies), neeps (swede/rutabaga), tatties (potatoes), sugary sauces sometimes served alongside.
