ROAST LEG OF MUTTON. Procure a leg of mutton weighing five or six pounds, wipe it, and place it in a baking tin in a hot oven; let it roast for two hours; shortly before serving sprinkle a little salt on the meat, and see that it browns evenly. It should be well basted with the dripping which comes from it continually whilst cooking; when done, dish the meat, pour off the drip- ping from the tin, add some boiling water
