Put some Protose, Fibrose (brown), Nuttoria, or other nut-meat through
the nut-mill before cooking. Fry slowly with some chopped onion. Cover
with brown stock, and cook slowly until nearly all the gravy is
absorbed. Then add breadcrumbs, herbs, seasoning, and a little butter,
stir thoroughly over the fire, and set aside on a plate to cool. Form
the mixture into small rolls, dip in egg, roll in breadcrumbs, and
fry. Garnish with parsley, and serve with onion sauce or brown gravy.
=53. Jugged Nuttose.=
Bake some Nuttose (dressed with butter) for half-an-hour, in slices
half-an-inch thick; then dip in egg and breadcrumbs, and fry. Also
make some forcemeat balls by rubbing 1/2-oz. of butter in 5-ozs. of
breadcrumbs, adding chopped lemon thyme, lemon peel and parsley, some
pepper and salt, and 1 egg to bind; fry very brown. Cut up the Nuttose
in quarter pieces and stew slowly in remainder of the bean stock with
about 10 cloves. Garnish with sprays of parsley and the forcemeat
balls. Serve with red currant jelly and mashed potatoes.
=54. Nuttose Ragout.=
A good way to prepare Nuttose is as follows:--Fry a teaspoonful of
butter until quite brown, add flour until it absorbs the butter, add
gradually any vegetable stock until a nice rich gravy results. Bring
to the boil and add very thin slices of Nuttose. Stew very slowly for
1 hour, adding some Worcester or other sauce to taste. Garnish with
mashed potatoes and serve with a green vegetable.
=55. Minced Nut-meat.=
Prepare a tin of Protose or other nut-meat by running it through a
mincing machine, or mashing it with a fork, and stewing it in
vegetable gravy. Serve with a border of green peas or beans, and with
mashed potatoes placed round the outside of the dish. It is also nice
served as follows, viz.:--Prepare as for minced meat. Boil a cupful of
rice as for curry. When cooked stir in one teaspoonful of tomato sauce
and seasoning. Put the mince in the centre of the dish with a wall of
the rice and tomato round it.
=56. Lentil and Potato Sausages.=
Boil 5-ozs. lentils in very little water, so that when cooked all
water is absorbed, then add 1 chopped and fried onion, a tiny pinch of
herbs, pepper and salt, 4 boiled and mashed potatoes, and the _yolk_
of 1 egg. Allow to cool a little, then flour the hands, and form into
sausage shape. Brush over with white of egg and fry in boiling oil.
Decorate with parsley and serve with a border of green peas.
=57. Stuffed Yorkshire Pudding.=
For the stuffing:--1/4-lb. cooked lentils, 1 onion chopped and fried, a
pinch of herbs, 2 tablespoonfuls of breadcrumbs, and seasoning.
For the batter:--1/4-lb. of flour, 1/2-pint of milk, 1 egg.
Mix the batter and partly bake for 20 minutes; remove from oven,
spread with stuffing, roll up carefully, return to oven and bake
brown. Serve with apple sauce and brown gravy.
