* 1/4 lb. Macaroni--2 1/2d.

Boil the macaroni, or use any cold that may be in the larder. Cut it
into pieces about three inches long, cut the cheese into very thin
slices, and cut the celery into very small pieces. Lay these
alternately in a bowl with some shredded lettuce. Make a dressing of
the mustard, oil, and vinegar, and pour it over. Garnish with a little
beetroot, and serve.
CHEESE SAVOURY
Take some dry, hard cheese and some dry crusts of bread. Pour a little
boiling milk over the bread, cover it down till quite soft, then beat
it with a fork; grate up the cheese and beat it in with the yolk of an
egg and some pepper and salt. Beat the white of the egg to a stiff
froth and stir it lightly in, pour into a buttered pie-dish and bake in
a quick oven for twenty minutes. Serve hot.
TURNIP SALAD

* 2 Spring Onions--1 1/2d.

* Half a Lettuce--1/2d.
*
* Salad Dressing--4d.
*
* Total Cost--6 1/2 d.
*
Peel and slice up the turnips and boil them for twenty minutes,
or until soft. Let them get quite cold. Shred up very small the onions,
and slice up the potatoes. Break up half a lettuce. Arrange these
neatly in a bowl and pour over a simple salad dressing or remoulade
sauce.
EAST INDIAN SALAD SAUCE

*
* 1 teaspoonful Curry Powder--1/2d.

* 1/2 gill Oil
*

*
* Total Cost--4d.

Boil the eggs hard; put the yolks into a bowl and work them till they
are quite smooth. Work in gradually the curry powder, oil, and vinegar.

Trim off the crust and cut the bread into dice, put into a bowl and
pour over the oil. Let it stand till all the oil is absorbed; then
mince up the onion, cauliflower, eggs, and meat, and strew them over.
Season with pepper and salt. Well wash the mustard and cress and
arrange on the top. Cut the beetroot into neat shapes and arrange as a
garnish.
