Bentinck Cutlets

Melt one ounce of butter, stir in one ounce of flour, and a tea-spoonful of curry powder. When quite smooth add half a pint of stock; season with pepper and salt. When the flour is entirely cooked and the sauce quite smooth, take it off the fire, stir in eight ounces of cold minced meat and four ounces of bread-crumbs; let it simmer for ten minutes. Add a table-spoonful of ketchup, and one beaten egg; mix thoroughly. Turn on a dish to get cold; form it into the shape of cutlets. Insert a small piece of macaroni for the bone. Brush over with egg and bread-crumbs. Fry a golden brown. Probable cost, 1s. 3d.
