Casserole Cooked

Hidden Kidneys

Allow an equal number of large onions and sheep's kidneys. Peel the onions and, keeping them whole, re- move the centres. Into the cavity press a skinned sheep's itidney. Put some haricot beans at the bottom of the casserole, arrange the onlons on these, then cover with sliced potatoes. Pour over some stock, season well, cover lightly, and leave to cook for at least three hours."

Veal with Tomatoes

Put a thin coating of macaroni at the bottom of the casserole, then a layer of halved tomatoes, cut side upper- most. Cut knuckle of veal into slices, try in a little butter until lightly browned, then arrange these on top of the tomatoes. Add a fried chopped onion, salt, pepper, and half a teaspoonful of mixed herbs. Cover with gravy made with a stewed veal bone and thickened with corn- flour.

New Silhouettes

Anne Selby gives some good sug- gestions to parents. of children

who are.

Taking lunch

to

school

HE days are gone when the only possible lunch a child

THE could take to school was a package of sandwiches

crammed into an over-burdened satchel, with perhaps an apple squeezed into pocket.

The school child of to-day generally carries a neat little case, and Into this the modern parent packs a cor- respondingly attractive lunch-light yel nourishing. Variety in the menu should, of course, be one of the main con- siderations in planning this meal, and' many mothers will welcome new ideas for easily packed Rems.

Sandwiches and Soup

At this time, of the year especially there should be something hot and nourishing included in the school lunch, Soup made from stock or meat extract, a vegetable soup such as potato or tomato made with milk, or a good lentil puree are ideal, or the flask can contain hol cocon or hot flavoured milk. If sandwiches are to be given, use brown bread, cut wafer thin, and spread thickly with butter. A steamed Allet of white fish, flavoured with onion, is ex- cellent between thinnest bread and butter, or a slice of liver, sauted until tender and then well drained, can be used in the same way.

Fried food is not digestible, especially if caten quickly before a vigorous game, but fat calces of minced, uncooked meat,mixed with a few brown breadcrumbs,.can be bound with a beaten egg and baked in. the oven with a le dripping. Drain well and wrap in greaseproof paper when cold.

Green Salads

-Hard-boiled eggs can be included sometimes. They are more appetising if they are first cut in half, the yolks taken out, mashed with butter and a little salt, then put back, and the two halves pressed together before being wrapped.

•

A green salad or raw fruit should be included every day. A le lettuce or watereress can be wrapped Otherwise separately or Included in the sandwiches. there should be an apple, tomato or orange.

To finish up the repast there should be something sweet.

Sweet Recipes

BRAN CAKES-Mix logether a cupful each of bran and four, sift in two teaspoons of baking powder, two tablespoons sugar, some salt, and mix well together. Add 4oz. of seeded raisins or chopped dates, and stir two tablespoons of melted butter, a cup of milk, and two beaten eggs. Stir well, and bake in small greased Ens in a moderate oven for about 25 minutes.

PINEAPPLE BETTY-Heat two tablespoons of butter. and in it brown two cups brown breadcrumbs, Mixed in 1⁄2 cup of sugar. Drain, the juice from a tin of crushed pineapple and keep it for your next fruit salad. Make layers of crumbs and the drained pineapple, finishing with crumbs, and bake. This could be used as the family pudding for lunch, and a small one made at the same time for next day's school lunch.
