Tomatoes, stewed.—Peel, stalk, and slice as many
tomatoes as you need, and lay them in a pan (enamelled
for choice), with 1oz. of butter or delicately-clarified
dripping for each ½lb. of sliced tomato; cover the
pan, and cook very slowly till tender, which they
should be in about twenty minutes, then serve. If
liked, the tomatoes need only be halved instead of
sliced.
