Directions
MRS. J. P. FOSTER.
Cold pieces of beef, either boiled, broiled or baked, can be used for the dish. Free the meat from all pieces of bone, chop fine, and mix with two parts of potatoes to one of beef. Potatoes boiled with the skins on are best. They should be cold, and chopped not quite so fine as the meat. Put them in a spider with melted butter or clarified drippings, and just enough hot water to keep from burning. Season to taste, and keep stirring till the whole is cooked together. If liked crisped, let it remain still long enough to bake a crust on the bottom, and then turn out on a flat dish. Other meats may be used instead of beef.
BEEF AND MUTTON PIE. Take slices of tender meat, pound thin and broil ten min- utes; cut off the gristly and bony parts; season it highly with salt and pepper; butter, and cut it into small pieces. Line a pudding-dish with pastry; put in the meat, and to each layer put a teaspoonful of tomato catsup, and a large spoonful of water. Sprinkle flour over the whole and cover it with pie- crust, having a slit in the center of it. Lay strips of pastry over, so as to give it a tasteful appearance, and bake it about an hour. Cooked mutton, and roast beef or broiled beef, can be made into a good pie. Cut them into small pieces, season with salt and pepper; add gravy, or butter and water, till you can see it at the top.
