Note.—Cold potatoes, mashed up, can be added to the pudding. SAUSAGE ROLLS Boil the sausages for 5 minutes, then take out. of, the skin... Make ‘‘ Short CrustSausage Rolls,” following our recipe, roll out square, put sausage on one half, double over the paste, pinch together, prick holes on top with a fork, and then bake. Minced beef and ham, or veal and ham, will make a nice filling instead of the sausage. Stuffing or Forcemeat For Veal, Chicken, Turkey, etc. Delicious stuffing or forcemeat is made with little trouble by our recipe, and gives a de- lightful and fragrant piquancy to many dishes. Roast Veal, Poultry, and Turkeys should always be stuffed. All white meat has a tendency to be slightly insipid, and the stuff- ing improves the flavour, stimulates the palate, lends an added interest to the dish, and makes it go farther. Mutton and Lamb boned and stuffed make an extremely nice change from the usual roast joint, especially if also served with forcemeat balls, cooked in the baking tin (p. 47). Rabbit, stuffed and roasted is de- licious. The rabbit should be covered with slices of bacon and well basted to prevent the flesh getting dry. Herrings, Fresh Haddock, etc., stuffed and baked, provide another tasty variation from the usual methods. Stuff the fish and bake in a moderate oven, basting at intervals. 46 STUFFING 4-oz.

TO STUFF A FOWL Cut off the neck where it joins the body, leaving plenty of loose skin. Place a square of breadcrust in first to prevent the stuffing falling into the carcase, then press the stuff- ing in lightly but firmly, and skewer or sew the skin over. The carcase may also be filled for forcemeat, or with boiled chest- nuts, chestnut puree, sausages or sausage meat. FORCEMEAT BALLS Recipe as for ‘‘Stuffing’’ (p. 46). Make the mixture into balls, cover with beaten egg and breadcrumbs, and fry in boiling ATORA (Block) or cook round the meat or bird in the baking tin. Sundries MINCEMEAT 1-lb. Shredded ATORA. 1-lb.
