Flan de Fraises à la Parisienne

(A Strawberry Sweet, Cold.) Ingredients.

One pound of firm ripe Strawberries.

Three ounces of castor Sugar.

About half a pound of Short Crust.

The whites of two Eggs.

Line a pastry ring (six inches in diameter) with the short crust, place it on a baking-sheet, fill it up with dried peas or rice, and bake it a delicate brown in a moderate oven and remove the peas.

Wipe and prepare sufficient strawberries to fill the ring; arrange the fruit in one layer closely in the baked crust, put it in the oven, and when nearly baked add about one ounce of castor sugar to the fruit.

Beat up the whites of eggs to a stiff froth, mix with castor sugar, spread the meringue mixture quickly over the surface, and brown slightly in the oven, Serve cold,
