 I love to cook with inspiring local ingredients, most of the time this means the wonderful range of treats available in my home county of Devon, but when away working in Aberdeen, I love to search out the local treats and work out a new way of using them. I had a lovely slice of Stornoway Black Pudding, made with lambs blood, an Arbroath Smokie, a fantastic smoky hot smoked haddock with a lovely creamy flesh, and a lovely duck egg. I fried off the black pudding in a little rapeseed oil, with the duck egg until both were crispy on the edges (with the egg still runny of course) and then plated up with the pudding on the bottom, some flakes of the smokie, and finally the duck egg sitting proudly on top. Cut into the egg and let the yolk ooze out through the fish and black pudding. The rich taste of the black pudding marry well with the smoky creaminess of the smokie, and the egg simply takes this combination to a heavenly level. Simply enjoy! Cheers Marcus |

Looks lovely! Not sure an egg can sit 'proudly' though  |

Arbroath Smokies ... wonderful. Remember having them for the first time in Scotland 20ish years ago. Beat the kippers I've always enjoyed into another class. Can't bring myself to eat black pudding, but duck eggs - now they are lovely!
And as usual your pictures make it look fabulous Marcus.

Great looking photo. I could almost taste that little trio of delights.
Black pudding is one of my favorites but haven't been able to find a good traditional black pudding (with pieces of back fat) for a good while.
