Onions Stewed Brown.
Top and tail them; skin, and dredge them with flour. Then fry to a good brown in dripping. Put into a pot, cover with a little of the liquor in which the tongue was boiled, and stew slowly two hours, or until tender. Take up the onions; thicken the sauce with browned flour, add a tablespoonful of butter, with pepper; boil up, and pour over the onions.
