Cut a fine large steak from a rump that has been well hung, or it will do from any tender part: beat it, and season with pepper, salt and an onion: lav it into an irou stew pan that has a cover to fit quite close, and set it by the si le of the fire without watei.
Take care it does not burn, but it must have a strong heat: in two or three hours it will be quite tender, and then serve with its own gravy.
