EGG CHOPS
6 hard-boiled eggs
1/2 pint of finely chopped cooked ham
1/2 pint of milk
2 level tablespoonfuls of butter
4 level tablespoonfuls of flour
1 tablespoonful of chopped parsley
1 teaspoonful of onion juice
1/2 teaspoonful of salt
1 dash of cayenne
1 dash of white pepper
Chop the eggs very fine, mix them with the ham; add the parsley, onion juice and pepper. Rub the butter and flour together and add the milk. Stir until you have a smooth, thick sauce, then add the salt; mix this with the other ingredients and turn it out to cool. When cold form into a chop about the size of an ordinary mutton chop. Dip first in egg beaten with a tablespoonful of water, then cover carefully with bread crumbs and fry in deep hot fat. Serve with either tomato or brown sauce.
PLAIN SCRAMBLED EGGS
Put two tablespoonfuls of butter in a shallow frying pan. Add a tablespoonful of water to each egg. Six eggs are quite enough for four people. Add a half teaspoonful of salt, and a saltspoonful of pepper. Give two or three beats—enough to break the eggs; turn them into the frying pan, on the hot butter. Constantly scrape from the bottom of the pan with a fork, while they are cooking. Serve with a garnish of broiled bacon and toast.
SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CHIPPED BEEF
Pull apart a quarter of a pound of chipped beef, cover with boiling water, let it stand ten minutes, drain and dry. Put it into a saucepan with two level tablespoonfuls of butter, four eggs, beaten until they are well mixed, and a dash of pepper. Stir with a fork until the eggs are "set."
EGGS SCRAMBLED WITH LETTUCE
Remove the outside leaves from one head of lettuce; wash, dry, and with a very sharp knife cut them into shreds. Chop sufficient onion to make a tablespoonful. Put a tablespoonful of butter into a saucepan, add the onion, shake until the onion is soft, then add six eggs, beaten without separating until well mixed, but not light. Add a half teaspoonful of salt, a half saltspoonful of pepper and the shredded lettuce. Stir with a fork until the eggs are "set," turn at once onto a heated platter, garnish with triangular pieces of toast and send to the table.
