MUSHROOM SAUCE

Dissolve one-half teaspoonful of extract of beef in one-half pint of boiling water. Fry one minced onion and one chopped carrot in a little butter or dripping until lightly browned; pour the liquid over them, let all boil together for ten minutes and add a dessert-spoonful of mushroom ketchup, skim, strain, and it is ready for the table.
