Lamb--_Six lamb chops cut 2 inches thick, will be
required. Remove bone and fat and with skewers arrange in 6 circular
pieces. Around each wrap a thin strip of bacon, fastening in place
with wooden skewers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, place on well
Criscoed broiler, and broil over clear fire 15 minutes. Remove to
hot-platter, garnish with rissole potatoes, and pass mint jelly with
them. The potatoes are done in this way: Peel and wash 8 Bermuda
potatoes of uniform size, put in ice water for 15 minutes, dry in a
towel, and fry until delicate brown in hot Crisco. Drain on paper,
then bake until soft. Remove to serving platter, and pour around 1
cup of rich white or cream sauce or 1 cup of heavy cream scalded and
seasoned.
