Mutton Chops in Batter

Ingredients

• mutton
• pepper
• salt
• a little nutmeg
• 0.5 pint milk
• 3 tablespoon flour
• 2 eggs
• dripping or lard

Instructions

1. Cut nice little slices from a tender leg of mutton or loin.
2. Season the slices with pepper, salt, and a little nutmeg.
3. Prepare a batter by combining half a pint of milk, three tablespoonfuls of flour, and two eggs; if eggs are scarce, mix flour with thick milk and half a teaspoonful of carbonate of soda instead to make a light, nice batter.
4. Dip each slice in the batter.
5. Fry in hot dripping or lard as you would a cutlet.
