"Ms Brown, whose findings feature in a TV documentary broadcast this week, said: “It was originally an English dish. In 1615, Gervase Markham says that it is very popular among all people in England.
“By the middle of the 18th century another English cookery writer, Hannah Glasse, has a recipe that she calls Scotch haggis, the haggis that we know today.”
