serve with a sauce seasoned with lemon pickle and chopped mint. * * * * * A CASSEREET, AN EAST INDIA DISH. Take two pounds of lamb chops, or mutton may be substituted, place them in a stewpan, cover with water or gravy, season only with pepper and salt, when the chops are half done, carefully skim off the fat and add two table spoonsful of cassereet, stir it in the gravy which should not be thickened, and finish stewing gently till done enough; rice should accompany this dish. * * * * * TURKEY BONED AND FORCED.
