little ketchup and a gill of water; toss the saucepan about on the fire
while the pieces of rabbit boil for about ten minutes, and then pour the
whole into a proper sized basin lined with a suet or dripping crust; let
the pudding be covered in with some of the paste, put into a
baking-dish half full of hot water, and placed in the oven, to bake for
an hour and a-half.
No. 67. STEWED OX KIDNEY.
Cut up the kidney in thin slices, fry them brown with a bit of butter or
fat in a frying-pan, over a brisk fire, season with chopped parsley,
shalot, pepper and salt, shake in a good table-spoonful of flour, add a
few drops of vinegar, and nearly half a pint of water; stir the whole on

with a dish of well-boiled or baked potatoes, will produce a cheap and
excellent dinner sufficient for six persons.

Wash and wipe the heart, cut it into four pieces, season these with

and the lid being put on, set the stew in the oven to bake for two
hours.

peeled potatoes, two ounces of dripping or butter, and half a pint of
water; season well with pepper and salt, and while baking let the heart

oven, send it to the baker's.
