Required: Half a pound of any kind of cold game.

Three ounces of cooked tongue, ham or bacon.

Two eggs.

One teaspoonful of chopped parsley.

One tablespoonful of Worcester sauce.

Breadcrumbs.

Salt and pepper, a little nutmeg.

One pound of cold potatoes. Rub the potatoes through a sieve or mash them finely with a fork. Beat up the egg, mix it with the potato, and season it with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Chop the game and tongue or ham finely, mix with it the parsley, sauce, and seasoning. Slightly flour a pastry - board, take small pieces of mashed potato, flatten them into cutlet shape, put on a good layer of the game mixture, cover with some more potato, working it smoothly together at the edges, and smoothing it into shape with a knife. Brush each cutlet with beaten egg, and cover it with crumbs. Then again coat each with egg and crumbs. Fry them a golden brown in hot fat, drain them on paper, and serve garnished with fried parsley.
