CHICKEN, FRIED (another way)

Take the remains of a cold chicken, cut it into neat pieces, brush a little oil over each piece, and strew over it, rather thickly, salt and curry powder. Melt a little butter in a frying-pan, and fry some onions, cut into thin strips about half an inch long and the eighth of an inch wide. Fry them slowly, keeping them in the pan until they are a dark brown colour, and quite dry. They will require a little care, as they must on no account be burnt. Fry the chicken, strew the onion over it, and serve with slices of lemon. Time to fry the chicken, ten minutes. Allow two or three pieces of chicken for each person. Probable cost, 3d., exclusive of the cold chicken.
