1 tin of sweet corn, 1 pint of milk, 4 eggs, 1 oz. of butter, 8 oz. of
Allinson fine wheatmeal, 1/2 saltspoonful of nutmeg, pepper and salt

CURRY BALLS.
8 oz. of rice, 1/2 oz. of butter, 1 good teaspoonful of curry, 2 eggs,
pepper and salt to taste, some oil or butter for frying, and 1
teacupful of raspings. Boil the rice in 1 pint of water, adding the
butter and seasoning. When the rice is dry and tender mix in the
curry, beat up 1 egg, and bind the rice with that. Form into balls,
dip them in the other egg, well beaten, then into the raspings and
fry them a nice brown in oil or vege-butter.
CURRY SAVOURY.

tomatoes, 1 dessertspoonful of curry, 2 eggs well beaten, 1 oz. of

pie-dish, mix the curry, eggs, and salt with the rice and lentils, add
a little milk if necessary; spread the mixture over the tomatoes, with
the butter in bits over the top, and bake the savoury from 1/2 to 1
hour.

onions, chopped very fine, 2 breakfastcupfuls of tinned tomatoes, 3
eggs, well beaten, 3 oz. of butter, 1 dessertspoonful of curry, salt

inch long; fry the onion brown in the butter, mix the breadcrumbs with
the tomatoes, add the eggs, curry, onion and salt, and mix all this
with the macaroni; turn the mixture into a pie-dish, and bake the pie
for 1 hour.
