Veal and Oyster Pie.
Cut the best parts of your cold roast fillet into thin dominoes. Put a layer in the bottom of a pudding-dish; sprinkle with the dressing, chopped fine, or with minced ham; cover with oysters; strew these with pepper, salt, butter-bits, a pinch of grated lemon-peel, and squeeze a few drops of lemon-juice over them. More veal, etc., and, when the dish is full, pour in yesterday’s gravy, skimmed, and mixed with as much oyster-liquor. Cover with a good paste, and bake one hour. Wash over with white of egg just before you take it up. The pastry can, in cold weather, be made on Saturday, and kept in a cool place.
