one-half in a moderate oven. Add salt and pepper and some sliced carrot,
and cook until the carrot is tender. Remove the chops to a hot platter
and pour over them the gravy which may be thickened, then garnish with
the carrot.

~LAMB CURRY~--Cut the meat into small pieces, (and the inferior
portions, such as the neck can be utilized in a curry), roll in flour
and fry in hot olive oil, pork fat, or butter, until a rich brown. Mince
or slice an onion and fry in the same way. Then put into a saucepan,
cover with boiling water, and simmer until the bones and gristly pieces
will slip out. When the meat is sufficiently tender add a cupful each
strained tomato and rice, then a powder. Cook ten minutes longer and
serve.

~MEAT PIE~--Chop fine, enough of cold roast beef to make two cupfuls,
also one small onion, pare as many potatoes as desired and boil, mash
and cream as for mashed potatoes. Drain a cupful of tomato liquid free
from seeds, stir meat, onion and tomato juice together, put in a deep
dish, spread potatoes over the top and bake in a hot oven.

~MINCED MUTTON~--Mince the meat from a cold roast of mutton, put into a

the sauce and let it cook without boiling. Serve with thin slices of
bread around the plate.

and wash well and cut lengthwise into strips. Place them in a saucepan
with a little stock, add a small quantity of flour, a few slices of
onion fried, salt and pepper to taste. Place the pan over a slow fire

a little lemon juice to the liquor and pour over the ears. Serve with a
garnish of fried bread.

~PORK CUTLETS AND ANCHOVY SAUCE~--Broil on a well greased gridiron, over

bones of the cutlets. Serve very hot with Anchovy Sauce.

~RAGOUT OF COOKED MEAT~--Cut one pint of cold meat into half-inch dice,
removing the fat, bone and gristle. Put the meat into a stew pan, cover
with boiling water and simmer slowly two or three hours or until very
tender. Then add half a can of mushrooms cut fine, two tablespoons of
lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Wet one tablespoonful of
