APPLES AND RICE, PLAIN.
DIVIDE a dozen apples in halves, take out the cores, peel them, and place them in neat order in a deep sautapan thickly spread with butter; strew some lemon-sugar over them, put the lid on, and then bake them without allowing them to acquire any colour. Prepare some rice boiled with milk, sugar, a little butter, and some cinnamon; when thoroughly done, work this up with a spoon, and then dish it up in the form of a dome; arrange the apples neatly upon this, pour some melted apricot-jam over the whole, and serve quite hot.
