POTATOES FOR PILGRIMS (a Trappist recipe)

Boil six or eight potatoes, and cut them in slices. Make a little frying batter (see FRYING BATTER), and dip in it half a dozen onions thinly sliced; fry these in hot fat, and when they are browned, put the potatoes into the pan with them. Pour over them as much milk as will barely cover them. Sprinkle powdered sugar upon them, let them stew gently a short time, and serve very hot. Time to stew, five or six minutes. Probable cost, 8d. Sufficient for four or five persons.
