  1. Must
  2. Sugar
  3. Venison
  4. Mutton
  5. Loin
  6. a pint of water

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. about thirty-five or forty minutes before serving, and then baste it continually.
  2. Bring the haunch nearer to the fire before you take off the paste, and froth it up as you would venison.
  3. A gravy must be made of a pound and a half of loin of oid mutton, simmered in a pint of water to half, and no seasoning but salt : brown it with a little burnt sugar, and send it up in the dish ;
  4. but there should be a good deal of gravy in the meat;
  5. for though long at the fire, the distance and covering will prevent its running out.
  6. Serve with currant-jelly sauce.
