Four ounces of mushrooms, 1 oz. butter, 1 gill thick brown sauce, 1 tablespoonful thick cream, lemon-juice, parsley, seasoning, Yorkshire pudding mixture.
Method.—Cleanse and peel the mushrooms and remove the stalks (which can be used to flavour stock) and fry them in the butter for five minutes, seasoning them with salt, pepper, and a little powdered mace; then cover them with the sauce; place a greased paper over the pan and let them stew by the side of the fire for half an hour. Pass the mushrooms through a fine mincer, add a squeeze of lemon-juice, and reheat them in the pan previously used, with a tablespoonful of cream, stirring them occasionally to prevent them from burning. Prepare a Yorkshire pudding in the usual way, and bake it carefully so that it is nicely browned; when ready, spread the minced mushrooms evenly on the top, scatter some parsley over it, and with a sharp knife cut it into neat squares, and serve with, or without, a boat of thick brown sauce.
