Steak with Bananas

Peel one banana and slice in round pieces, and while the steak
is cooking fry them in a little hot butter till they are brown.
After the meat is on the platter, lay these pieces over it,
arranging them prettily, and put the parsley around as before.
Bananas are very nice with steak.


Frizzled Dried Beef

Take half a pound of dried beef, shaved very thin. Chop it fine
and pull out the strings. Put a large tablespoonful of butter in
the frying-pan, and when it bubbles put in the meat. Stir till it
begins to get brown, and then sprinkle in one tablespoonful of flour
and stir again, and then put in one cup of hot milk. Shake in a
little pepper, but no salt. As soon as it boils up once, it is
done, and you can put it in a hot covered dish. If you like a
change, stir in sometimes two beaten eggs in the milk instead of
using it plain.


Veal Cutlet

Wipe off the meat with a clean wet cloth, and then with one that is
dry. Dust it over with salt, pepper, and flour. Put a tablespoonful
of nice dripping in a hot frying-pan, and let it heat till it smokes
a little. Lay in the meat and cook till brown, turning it over twice
as it cooks. Look in the inside and see if it is brown, for cutlet
must not be eaten red or pink inside. Put in a hot oven and cover it
