Bit of fun about the humble Tattie Scone

Its a F***** Tattie Scone

Lets start off the way we mean to go on

It’s a tattie not a tottie,

It’s a scone not a scone (scawn).

It should be thin and not thick, and kinda triangular in shape

Never ever ever round,

It’s a tattie scone, not a crepe.

Best served lightly fried, like the delicacy deserves

Presented within breakfast or brunch,

But never hors d’oeuvres.

You may, garnish with sauce, should be legally brown

If you must, try some red,

But you’ll be run out of town

Wash down with some tea, in the mug that you trust

The humble fried tattie scone,

Is really a must.

So to summarise, when you are in the zone

Fried, brown sauce and tea,

Its not a farl, it’s a f***** Tattie Scone
