Egg Toast

Place a bowl containing three ounces of good butter in boiling water, and stir until the butter is quite melted; mix it with four well-beaten eggs, and put them together into a saucepan, keeping the mixture moving round in one direction until it becomes heated; then pour it quickly into a basin, and back again into the saucepan. Repeat this until it is hot, but on no account must it be boiling. Have ready some slices of buttered toast, lay the mixture of egg thickly over, and serve very hot. Time, about five minutes. Probable cost, 10d. Sufficient for two persons.
