Kidney-and-Egg Patties. — Boil three eggs until hard, and
mash them with a fork in a basin, add 1 teacupful of bread-
crumbs, table-spoonful each of flour and finely-chopped
onions and parsley, a few drops of chilli vinegar, and a dust
of pepper. Mix the above ingredients well, using a small
quantity of milk to bind them. Butter some small patty-
pans, cover the bottom of each with a thin layer of the egg
mixture, then open a tin of Kidneys and put ono in each of
the pans. Cover the Kidneys with a little of the paste, strew
finely-grated breadcrumb over, and put a small piece of butter
on the top of each. Put the patties in a brisk oven, and
bake for ten minutes. When sufficiently baked, take the
patties carefully out of the tins, arrange them on a dish
over which has been spread a folded napkin or an ornamental
dish-paper, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot or cold.
Kidney-and-Oyster Pudding. — Put eight or ten tinned
Kidneys into a stewpan together with 1 teacupful of their
liquor, 1 breakfast-cupful of tinned oysters and 1 teacupful
of their liquor, 1 table-spoonful of finely-chopped onions, and
J saltspoonful of powdered mace ; season to taste with salt
and pepper, stand the stewpan at the side of the fire, and
let the contents stew gently. Lino a well-buttered pudding-
basin with a suet crust, put a cloth over, and tie it round
the rim of the basin with string ; roll out a round of the
crust to fit the top of the basin, and lay it on the cloth, the
ends of which bring up and tie over it. Put the basin into
a saucepan of boiling water, and boil for half-an-hour. At
the end of that time take the cloth off the basin, put in the
stowed Kidneys and oysters, fix the top on the pudding, tie
the cloth over again, and boil for five minutes, then turn it
out of the basin on to a hot dish, and serve.
Kidney Patties. — Prepare a light lard crust. Dredge flour
over a paste-board, put the dough on it and roll out very
thin. Divide the paste into pieces 3in. square, place a tinned
Kidney on each of the pieces of paste, season them with salt
and pepper and a small quantity of pounded mace, then bring
the corners of the paste up so as to entirely envelop the
Kidney, moisten the edges slightly with water, and press
them together with the fingers. Put a good-sized lump of
fat in a stewpan, place it over the fire until beginning to
boil, then put in the patties, and turn them about in the fat
until of a golden brown. When fried, take the patties out
of the fat with a slice, and put them on a piece of paper
to drain thoroughly. Spread a folded napkin or a fancy
dish-paper over a hot dish, arrange the patties on it, and
serve.
Kidney Pie. — Scrape the jelly off ten tinned Kidneys, and put
it into a small stewpan with 1 table-spoonful of finely-
chopped onions, teaspoonful each of powdered cloves and
nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste ; and place over the
