CURRIED MUTTON (Cold Meat Cookery)
Origin: London, England
Source: Isabella Beeton, 1861
Ingredients
- The remains of any joint of cold mutton
- 2 onions
- 1/4 lb butter
- 1 dessertspoonful curry powder
- 1 dessertspoonful flour
- salt to taste
- 1/4 pint stock or water
Instructions
- Slice the onions in thin rings, and put them into a stewpan with the butter, and fry of a light brown;
- stir in the curry powder, flour, and salt, and mix all well together.
- Cut the meat into nice thin slices (if there is not sufficient to do this, it may be minced), and add it to the other ingredients;
- when well browned, add the stock or gravy, and stew gently for about 1/2 hour.
- Serve in a dish with a border of boiled rice, the same as for other curries.
