| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Using a pastry brush, coat the bottom and sides of a 4-to 5-quart casserole at least 6 inches deep with the 1 tablespoon of softened butter.
|
2. Spread about one third of the potato slices evenly over the bottom of the casserole, and place 3 lamb chops side by side on top. Sprinkle the chops with ½ teaspoon of the salt and a few grindings of pepper.
|
3. Add half the kidneys, 3 oysters, half the mushrooms and half the onions, and cover with another third of the potatoes. Place the 3 remaining chops on the potatoes and sprinkle them with the remaining salt and a few grindings of pepper.
|
4. Add the remaining kidneys, oysters, mushrooms and onions, and spread the rest of the potatoes evenly over the top. Pour in the water. Dot with the bits of butter.
|
5. Cover and bake in the middle of the oven for 1½ hours. Remove the cover and bake for 30 minutes longer, or until the top is brown. Sprinkle with parsley and serve directly from the casserole.
