Veal and Rice Cakes

Take some cold boiled rice (as for curry), add to it half its weight of cold veal, and the same of cold bacon, first finely minced and then pounded. Pound all together with a little salt, pepper, grated lemon-peel, nutmeg, thyme, and parsley. Add the yolk of an egg, and form into small cakes or balls. Coat with white of egg and crushed vermicelli, or bread-crumbs, and fry brown. Send a piquant brown sauce or a gravy made from veal bones flavoured with mushroom ketchup to table with them. Probable cost, 1s. per dozen.
