CRISQUETTES OF MUTTON.
Make the mutton ready as above, only have five or six pieces bacon cut in square pieces, and instead of putting into a basin, put a tea-spoonful into the middle of each piece. Egg on the top, and fold in the shape of sausage rolls. Then make a batter with two spoonfuls of flour and a little milk; wet it gradually with the back of a wooden spoon, till you get it to the thickness of cream, then switch the yolk and white of an egg separately; mix both together, and stir in the batter, and dip your rolls in it—see that the bacon is very thinly cut, so that it will fry in hot lard. Have some sprigs of parsley fried to garnish with. Serve any kind of nice vegetables in centre.
STUFFED CUCUMBERS.
Put two cucumbers on to stew, peeled, in a pint of stock. When tender, take them up, cut them into two-inch lengths for stuffing. The remains of any cold chicken, or rabbit, or veal will do. Have it minced fine, with a drop of any sauces liked, such as Mushroom, Worcestershire, Harvey, and a little flour, parsley, pepper, and salt. Fill up the cucumbers, place them in the stew-pan to get hot, and serve the gravy over. Fill the centre with white beans for a garnish.
TIMBALES OF MACARONI.
Boil one ounce of macaroni till tender, then cut it into very short pieces; take a wire and place it round the side of the timbale moulds, when greased; make a mince of cold mutton, or chicken, or rabbit; place a cupful of mince on the fire, with two glasses of stock, pepper and salt, and sprinkle of dried herbs, a few drops of mushroom ketchup, a half-ounce of bread-crumbs, and the yolk of two eggs stirred into the mince. Fill the timbale moulds, steam for fifteen minutes, and serve with tomato sauce. Fill the centre with potatoes fried, cut the size of walnuts.
