To Dress Beef Kidney II

Ingredients

• 1 kidney
• 1 dessertspoonful of minced parsley
• 1 teaspoonful of minced shalot
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1/4 pint of gravy
• 3 tablespoonfuls of sherry

Instructions

Take off a little of the kidney fat, mince it very fine, and put it in a frying-pan; slice the kidney, sprinkle over it parsley and shalots in the above proportion, add a seasoning of pepper and salt, and fry it of a nice brown. When it is done enough, dredge over a little flour, and pour in the gravy and sherry. Let it just simmer, but not boil any more, or the kidney would harden; serve very hot, and garnish with croûtons. Where the flavour of the shalot is disliked, it may be omitted, and a small quantity of savoury herbs substituted for it.

Time: From 5 to 10 minutes, according to the thickness of the slices.

Sufficient for 3 persons.

Seasonable at any time.
