RECIPES TRIED AND TRUE
HAMBURGER STEAK
Mix one pound top round with salt pepper, ½ cup bread crumbs, or bread soaked in water, one beaten egg, and form into loaf. With two tablespoons melted fat, brown quickly on all sides, then add onions and brown. Also half cup water and let simmer for 30 minutes. If desired, add 2 tablespoons tomatoes and bay leaf. Add more water if necessary. Pot roast beef and beef stew can be prepared the same way, with carrots, cut small for seasoning.
LEFT OVER VEAL
Cut up into dice shapes, season with salt and pepper and prepare a white sauce, and heat the veal. Chop fine two hard boiled eggs, add to veal until warm.
MEAT PIE
Line bottom and sides of casserole with pie crust. Fill with cold roast beef or lamb chopped. Season with salt, pepper onion juice or onion salt, chopped parsley. To each cup of meat, pour in one-third cup gravy or ¼ cup water. Cover with pie crust and bake till brown about ½ hour. Chicken pie may be made the same way. Either may be mixed with a few sauted mushrooms, green peas, celery, carrots and potatoes diced.
PAN BROILING STEAK
Remove from steak extra fat. Heat a frying pan very hot and grease it with the fat scraps. Put in steak, cook one minute, turn and brown the other side. Then cook more slowly until done. Season and add browned onions if desired. Chopped meat can be prepared the same way but seasoned first and formed into a steak.
