Miroton au gratin.—Slice down neatly some underdone meat of any kind, and lay these slices on a buttered tin, strewing them well with finely chopped mushrooms, parsley, chives, onions or shallot, and pour in at the side as much stock as will come level with, but not cover, the meat; strew grated and seasoned breadcrumbs freely over it all, and bake for twenty to thirty minutes till the moisture is nearly all evaporated. (If liked mix a little wine with the stock used in moistening it.)
