Fast-Day Cookery; or, Meals without Meat

1. Tumbled Eggs.

Put on half a pint of milk, with a piece of butter the size of a walnut. Well beat up four eggs, add one teaspoon of finely chopped onion, a little Nepaul pepper and salt to taste. Stir into the milk; keep stirring all the time till it gets thick. Then lay it on nicely buttered toast, and serve neatly dished and decorated with parsley.
