Cup Pudding

Mix a small tea-spoonful of flour and a tiny pinch of salt very smoothly with a dessertspoonful of cold water; pour over it, stirring all the time, a tea-cupful of boiling milk, and when it is cold strain it, to ensure its being perfectly free from lumps, and add one fresh egg well beaten. Sweeten with a small tea-spoonful of sugar, pour it into a buttered basin, and bake for twenty minutes. Turn out to serve. If it be allowed, a little sherry is an improvement. (A wholesome, easily-digested pudding for an invalid.) Probable cost, 3d. Sufficient for one person.
