Lightly boil the sliced kail and drain well. Gently fry the onion or shallot in butter, until golden; add the kail, stir, season and turn the heat off.

Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface. Spread the kail mixture. Open the haggis and carefully spoon it on the middle of the pastry dough, lightly press it with a spoon.

Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg or milk. Wrap the pastry around the haggis mound, as for making a parcel. Place the pastry-wrapped haggis on a greased baking tray . Brush the outside again with beaten egg or milk. Lightly prick the pastry with a fork. Sprinkle with salt. Bake for 35-40 minutes in a moderate oven. The pastry is ready when it is golden and crisp to the touch.

Remove from oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
