Potatoes: French

Prepare mashed potatoes; put them in a spider in which a tablespoonful butter has been melted, smooth with a palette knife, allow them to cook a few minutes over a moderate fire; when delicately crusted underneath, score in the center, fold omelet fashion, then put on a hot platter. Potatoes a la Hollandaise (French recipe). 1½ cupfuls white stock, 3 cupfuls potato cubes, 4 tablespoonfuls butter, teaspoonful salt, Dash McIlhenny's Tabasco Sauce, 1 tablespoonful lemon juice, 1 tablespoonful shredded parsley.

Pare the potatoes, cut into small cubes, and soak for half an hour in cold water. Cook until almost soft in the white stock, drain, and add the lemon juice, butter, and seasonings.
