Chestnut Croquettes

2 cups hot mashed chestnuts

2 eggs

4 tablespoons butter or other

Few drops onion-juice or 2 fat tablespoons finely chopped

Salt and pepper onion

Egg and crums

Mix the chestnuts, butter, slightly beaten eggs and seasonings. Shape into croquettes. Roll in crums, beaten egg and crums. Fry in deep hot fat until crums are brown.

This offers an adequate protein, iron and a comparatively highly seasoned dish. The croquettes may be served with brown sauce or tomato sauce.
