or three minutes, then lay the sausages in your dish, and pour the rest all over. You may, before you take it up, put in half a spoonful of vinegar.
Savoys forced and stewed.
TAKE two savoys, fill one with force-meat, and the other without. Stew them with gravy; season them with pepper and salt, and when they are near enough take a piece of butter, as big as a large walnut, rolled in flour, and put in.

TAKE half a pound of sausages, and six apples; slice four about as thick as a crown, cut the other two in quarters, fry them with the sausages of a fine light brown, lay the sausages in the middle of the dish, and the apples round. Garnish with the quartered apples.

Collops and eggs.
CUT either bacon, pickled beef, or hung mutton into thin slices; broil them nicely, lay them in the dish before the fire, have ready a stew-pan of water boiling, break as many eggs as you have collops, break them one by one in a cup, and pour them into the stew-pan. When the whites of the eggs
