Take 2 teacupfuls of boiled German lentils, put in a basin, and add a
cupful of fine breadcrumbs, and about half as much mashed potatoes.
Add any seasoning--ketchup, Worcester sauce--and a spoonful of melted
butter. Mix well with a fork and bind with 1 or 2 beaten eggs,
reserving a little for brushing over. Shape into a brick or oval, and
press together as firmly as possible. Brush over with the remainder of
the egg, put into a buttered tin and bake for half an hour. Serve with
a garnish of beetroot or tomatoes.

onions, then add about 6-ozs. of pine-kernels, having first ground
them in a nut-mill, continue frying till a pale brown, then turn into
a basin and add about 1/2-lb. breadcrumbs, pepper and salt, and 2 eggs.
Cover the basin with greased paper and steam one hour. Remove
