Shrimp Toast, with Eggs

Put a pint of picked shrimps into a stewpan with an ounce of butter and a little cayenne pepper; simmer for two minutes, then spread them on a large square of toast on a fire-proof baking-tin. Break six or eight eggs carefully over this, and cook in the oven till the eggs are set, which will be in about six to eight minutes. Dust a little pepper over, and serve at once. Probable cost, 1s. 6d. to 1s. 9d.
