Roast Mutton for Children
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.
Roast
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roast the mutton for about 1 hour until well-cooked.
Dredge the mutton with salt 10 minutes before it is done.
Serve
Once cooked, place the mutton on a dish.
Sprinkle a little coarse sea salt over the meat.
Pour 3–4 tablespoons of hot water over the meat to create a light gravy.
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
