Remove string and paper from the paupiettes, place them on a baking-tin, brush over with liquid meat glaze, and put in the oven for a few seconds. Put each paupiette in the centre of a stuffed tomato, dish up in a circle on a hot dish, pour the sauce round them, dress the peas in the centre of the dish, and serve. The sauce is prepared as follows : take off the fat from the liquor in which the paupiettes have been cooked, strain the latter into a saucepan, add the tomato sauce, and reduce to required consistency. Add a little more seasoning if it be found necessary. The paupiettes may be dressed on a thin border of mashed potatoes, and, if desired, a puree of spinach, by way of a change, can be served in place of peas. 840.
