Onions. i dessertspoonful of Chutney. I tablespoonful of Butter or Fat. i tablespoonful of Flour. Cut up the fowl into small pieces, as for chicken curry; if an old one, let it boil gently for four or five hours, with two or three quarts of water ; if you have a neck of mutton, or any other meat that will make some stock, you may add a little to this. The next day remove the fat and strain the soup, putting back any nice pieces of the fowl. A few slices of ham may also be added, to make a good stock. Brown the onions, mix all the ingredients, add to the soup, and let it all boil for a couple of hours. Send in hot, with boiled rice on a separate dish. SOUP {OX-TAIL). Ingredients. 2 Ox-tails.
