If you have no left over gravy then take 1 tablespoonful of butter,
brown it, stir in 1½ tablespoonfuls of flour, add water or bouillon, ½
teaspoonful of meat extract, 3 tablespoonfuls of cream (if on hand),
boil and pour over the potatoes and meat and bake. Serve in the
earthen dish.
No. 4—VEAL ROAST RAGOUT—BROWN.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
1½ lbs. of veal roast
½ pt. brown gravy
1½ tsps. sugar
1¼ tbsps. vinegar, (preferably wine vinegar)
1 tbsp. butter
2 gherkins or 4 sweet-sour pickles
1½ tbsps. of small pearl onions; pickled ones preferred
Preparation: If you have no left over gravy then make a false gravy by
directions given in No. 3. Add sugar and vinegar according to taste,
cut pickles into small pieces and put into the gravy with the onions.
Cut the meat into pieces and put it into the hot gravy; it must not
boil, otherwise the meat will be tough; put another piece of butter on
top and serve.
No. 5—SHELLS FILLED WITH VEAL ROAST.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
½ lb. veal roast
1½ tbsps. of butter
2 tbsps. of flour
Salt, pinch of pepper
3 tbsps. of white wine
Juice of ½ lemon
½ cup of cream
1 cup of bouillon or water and ¼ tsp. meat extract
½ tbsp. of Parmesan cheese, grated
1 tbsp. of rolls, grated
Preparation: The butter is melted and flour stirred in. Stew it and
add water or bouillon (if you take water, use ¼ teaspoonful of meat
extract), cream, white wine, salt, pepper, lemon juice. The gravy must
boil. Taste it to make sure that it may not be either too salty, too
sweet, or too sour.
Chop the veal roast and put it into the gravy. The mixture should be
pretty thick; fill it into the shells, sprinkle with the Parmesan
cheese and roll crumbs and place small pieces of butter on top. Then
bake them in the oven to a light yellow color which requires 10
minutes. Serve at once.
No. 6—VEAL ROAST PUDDING.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
1 lb. veal roast
⅛ part of an onion chopped fine
3 tsps. of parsley, chopped fine
⅛ lb. of butter, good measure
3 eggs
Salt
1 pinch of pepper
¼ cup of sweet cream
1 roll, grated
½ pt. of tomato or sardine gravy
1 tsp. of Parmesan cheese
Preparation: The veal roast is chopped fine. Three-fourths of the
butter is creamed, and the 3 yolks stirred in, meat, salt, pepper,
Parmesan cheese, roll crumbs, cream, parsley, all well mixed. The
chopped onion is cooked in butter for a little while and then stirred
in.
The white of egg is beaten stiff and also added to the mass. A tin
pudding mold is buttered and strewn with roll crumbs, the mixture put
in, and the closed mold set in a steamer over boiling water and
steamed for one hour.
Dump the pudding on a hot platter and pour over it tomato or sardine
gravy.
