Mutton Cutlets
Origin: London, England
Source: Anonymous, 1846
Ingredients
- 1 neck mutton
- cutlet preparation
- vegetable purée or sauce
Instructions
- Have a neck of mutton, cut the bones short, and remove the chine bone completely.
- Cut chops off so thin that every other one shall be without bone.
- Trim them carefully, so that all the chops shall bear the same appearance, then flatten them well.
- Cover them with a cutlet preparation and fry of a delicate brown.
- A fine purée of any vegetable that may be approved, or any sauce that may be selected, should be served with them.
- They may be arranged in various ways in the dish, either round the dish or in a circle in the centre, so that the small part of the cutlets shall almost meet; if the latter, the purée should garnish round them instead of being in the centre of the dish.
