Beef Steak and Cucumbers

When cucumbers are plentiful this makes an economical and pleasant dish. Peel and slice a large cucumber and three or four onions. Brown them in a frying-pan. Broil or fry two pounds of rump steak, then put it on a dish. Simmer the cucumber and onions in half a pint of good gravy, and pour round the meat. Time, ten minutes to fry if thick. Probable cost of steak, 1s. 4d. per pound. Sufficient for four persons.
