Ragoût of Roast Pig.
Slices of cold roast pig; the rest of the can of mushrooms opened on Wednesday; 2 tablespoonfuls of butter; 3 beaten eggs; 1 cupful of gravy or stock; juice and grated peel of half a lemon; chopped parsley, cayenne, salt and mace to taste.
Put gravy and mushrooms into a saucepan; heat to boiling, put in the butter rolled in flour; cut the slices of pig of nearly equal size; rub over with pepper, salt, mace, and lemon-peel; put them into the gravy and make very hot, but do not boil. Stir in the beaten eggs and lemon-juice; simmer three minutes and pour into a dish lined with crustless slices of fried bread.
