POOR MAN'S SAUCE (another way)

Mince an onion finely (or two or three shallots may be used instead). Fry it in a little dripping until it is tender; then pour over it a glass of vinegar and a glass of water or broth, and add a little pepper and salt. Let the sauce simmer gently for a few minutes, and serve. A table-spoonful of mushroom ketchup can be added or not. This sauce may be served with young roast turkey. Probable cost, 3d. Sufficient for three or four persons.
