MUTTON BOUDINS (Invalid Cookery)

Required: A quarter of a pound of lean meat (shredded), two table-spoonfuls of fine bread-crumbs, one table-spoonful of boiled rice, or macaroni cut in rings, one egg, and a little stock (a few spoonfuls will be sufficient). The ingredients are best mixed in a mortar, the egg and the stock being added to form a moist paste. They are lighter if the white of the egg is beaten and stirred in last. Three-fourths fill little moulds (dariole or others), buttered lightly. Cover with buttered paper; and poach in a shallow pan of simmering water until done (for twenty minutes or more). Wipe the grease off; and turn out on to a bed of vegetables, rice, etc., or as the case demands. A very good invalid dish. Sherry improves for some tastes.
