If you can't find faggots (also known as "Savoury Ducks" in the North of England) on sale locally (a butcher or farm shop - 50p-£1 each), then they can be bought online * (as farm shop plus postage - expensive) or here's here's a recipe:

Real faggots are baked in the oven for an hour or so.

NB Brains Faggots, sold in supermarkets, are NOT the real thing but a pale imitation. They are, however, very cheap (£1-£1.50) and the "sauce" is delicious:

Brains Faggots may be heated in the oven for 45 mins or microwave for 12 mins.
