BOILED VEAL MINCED, AND POACHED EGGS. Pare off the outside part of two pounds of boiled veal, cut it in shreds and chop very fine. Melt in a stewpan an ounce of butter, and brown two tablespoonfuls of flour in it, by stirring on the fire with a wooden spoon for three minutes ; then gradually mix it with a pint of broth, stirring the while, and reduce it on a brisk fire to the consistency of sauce; then add the minced veal, a little grated nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste ; stir and mix this on the fire for three minutes, and dish it up ; after which, place eight poached eggs

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
