How To Cook: |
|
|
1. The slice of steak must be not less than ½ inch thick and neatly shaped, trimmings being used for stock or gravy.
|
2. Cut the slice of steak into halves, crosswise.
|
3. On the lower half, sprinkle salt, pepper, chopped parsley and a few small bits of butter.
|
4. Put the chopped tongue in the centre and cover the whole thing with the other half of the steak, fastening them securely together by deep stitches, using thin string and a trussing or big darning needle for the job.
|
5. Cover the top with a thick layer of finely chopped onions, bits of butter, salt and pepper.
|
6. Put the steak in a tin; add a cup of either water or stock to it and small cut-up pieces of the beef fat or suet.
|
7. Bake in a moderately hot oven (400°F) for ¾ hour, basting 3 or 4 times.
|
8. When done, remove string and serve with a rich mushroom sauce.
