Kid, Hashed

Take about two pounds of the remains of a cold roast kid--if underdone, so much the better. Cut it into neat slices, and put it into a covered dish until wanted. Put a pint of good veal stock into a saucepan, with an ounce and a half of butter, rolled in flour, a tea-spoonful of salt, half a tea-spoonful of pepper, half a blade of mace, a sprig of parsley, and a shallot. Simmer gently for half an hour. Strain the gravy, add a wine-glassful of port, a table-spoonful of mushroom ketchup, a tea-spoonful of lemon-juice, and a lump of sugar. Put in the slices of kid, let them get quite hot without boiling the gravy, and serve immediately. Spinach, cauliflowers, or French beans are excellent as accompaniments to this dish Probable cost, exclusive of the cold kid and wine, 1s. Sufficient for four or five persons.
