Beef Cutlets

Trim all fat and skin from some slices of beef and shape them like cutlets, then salt and pepper them. Place a small lump of butter in a sautepan, and when melted fry the cutlets on both sides till done. Sprinkle over them a little chopped parsley, place on a dish, and pour over them a thick brown gravy.
