MUTTON BIRDS

Make a stuffing of bread crumbs seasoned with b.u.t.ter, salt, pepper, sage, and summer savory. Mix to a smooth paste with beaten egg. Spread thin slices of raw mutton with the mixture, roll up, and fasten with toothpicks. Brown in b.u.t.ter, then add a little hot water, and finish cooking in the oven, basting frequently. Thicken the gravy with browned flour and serve in a ca.s.serole.

CURRIED MUTTON

Chop a large onion fine and fry it in b.u.t.ter. Add one tablespoonful each of curry powder and flour, and a teaspoonful of salt. Stir until thoroughly mixed and add gradually two cupfuls of water or stock. Have ready two pounds of lean mutton, cut in small pieces. Fry brown in b.u.t.ter, add to the curry, and simmer until tender. Surround with a border of boiled rice and serve piping hot.

STUFFED CABBAGE LEAVES

Parboil and chop lean mutton, mix it with an equal quant.i.ty of boiled rice, and season with salt, pepper, and b.u.t.ter. Use the white leaves of cabbage. Lay a large spoonful of the meat and rice on each leaf, fold, and tie securely. Tie all the prepared leaves in cheese-cloth and boil slowly for half an hour in the water in which the mutton was boiled. Take off the cloth, remove the strings, and serve with melted b.u.t.ter.

LAMB IN MINT JELLY

Chop fine a bunch of mint, cover with vinegar, and add sugar to taste.

Let stand over night. Rub through a fine sieve, and add enough white stock to make the required quant.i.ty of jelly. Tint green with color-paste if desired, and add soaked and dissolved gelatine in the proportion of one package to a quart. Add also a tablespoonful of finely chopped mint leaves. Pour a thin layer of jelly into a mould, cover with thin slices of lean, rare, cooked mutton, and let harden.

Repeat until the mould is full. Set away to cool, turn out, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve with mayonnaise.

SHEPHERD'S PIE

Chop fine and season to taste cold cooked mutton. Put into a b.u.t.tered baking-dish with enough stock or gravy to moisten. Cover with highly seasoned mashed potato to which a beaten egg has been added and bake until the potato is puffed and brown. Serve in the same dish.

_PORK_

SAUSAGE ROLLS

Prepare a good pie-crust, not too rich. Roll out half an inch thick, cut into strips, and roll a small sausage in each strip. Put the rolls into a baking-pan, and bake for half or three-quarters of an hour.

FRANKFURTERS

Drop the sausages into boiling water and boil slowly until they float.

Drain, and rub with a mixture of b.u.t.ter, lemon-juice, and made mustard, heated very hot.

ROASTED SAUSAGES

Peel, core, and slice four or five tart apples. Make a syrup of one cupful each of sugar and water and cook the apples in it very slowly until tender. p.r.i.c.k the sausages with a fork, simmer in boiling water for fifteen minutes, then drain and brown in the oven. Put the sausages in the centre of a small deep platter, arrange the apples around in a border, and serve.

ROAST HAM WITH SHERRY

Soak a small lean ham in cold water for six hours, wipe dry, put into a saucepan, and cover with cold water. Add an onion, four sprigs of parsley, and six each of cloves and pepper-corns. Boil slowly for two hours. Let cool in the water, take up, skin, and sprinkle thickly with crumbs and sugar. Put into a roasting-pan with one pint of sherry.

Bake for forty minutes, basting every ten minutes. Serve the ham hot with the gravy in a separate bowl, or cold if preferred.

BAKED HAM WITH NOODLES

b.u.t.ter an earthen baking-dish and fill with alternate layers of cold cooked chopped ham and cooked and drained noodles. Have ham on top.

Beat two eggs with a cupful of milk, pour over, cover with crumbs, dot with b.u.t.ter, and brown in the oven.

PORK CHOPS a LA MARYLAND

Dip the pork chops in beaten egg, then in seasoned crumbs, and put into a dripping-pan. Cover and cook in a very hot oven, adding a little boiling water if necessary to keep from burning. Serve with any preferred sauce.

JELLIED PIGS' FEET

Take two pounds of the pickled pigs' feet as they come from the market, and boil in water to cover, seasoning with salt, pepper, celery seed, and a little vinegar. Boil until the meat slips from the bones. Remove the meat, cut it into small pieces, and reduce the liquid by rapid boiling to a cupful. Put the meat into a mould, pour the liquid over, and set away to cool. Serve with potato salad.

BROILED PORK TENDERLOIN

Trim off all the fat and the sinew from two tenderloins of pork. Dip in seasoned oil and broil slowly. Chop fine one tablespoonful each of pickles and parsley and mix to a smooth paste with two tablespoonfuls of melted b.u.t.ter and one teaspoonful of vinegar. Pour over the sauce and serve.

BREADED TENDERLOINS

Split and trim the tenderloins, and marinate for an hour in lemon-juice and oil, seasoned with salt and pepper. Dip in fresh bread crumbs, broil, and serve with Piquante Sauce.

PORK TENDERLOINS WITH SWEET POTATOES

Wipe two pork tenderloins, put into a dripping-pan, and brown quickly in a hot oven. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and powdered sage and bake for forty-five minutes, basting from three to four times. Have half a dozen sweet potatoes parboiled. Peel, cut in half, sprinkle with sugar, and put into the pan with the meat. Cook until soft, basting whenever the meat requires it.

MOCK DUCK

Split a large pork tenderloin, stuff with highly seasoned poultry stuffing, tie into shape, and roast. Baste frequently, take up, remove the string, and serve with gravy made of the drippings.

ROAST SPARERIBS

Trim off the rough ends, crack the ribs through the middle, rub with salt and pepper, fold over where cracked, stuff, sew or wrap with twine, put into dripping-pan with a pint of water, baste frequently and turn once. Should be a rich, even brown. Dressing: Three tablespoonfuls of bread crumbs, a finely chopped onion, same of apple, half a teaspoonful each of powdered sage, salt, and pepper, and two tablespoonfuls of chopped beef suet. Cook slowly in a little water.

ROAST LEG OF PORK

Score a leg of young pork, fill the slits with chopped onion and powdered sage, sprinkle with pepper, salt, and crumbs, and roast as usual, basting frequently. Serve with Cranberry Sauce.
