TAKE a pint of little young onions, peel them and take four large ones, peel them and cut them very small: put a quarter of a pound of good butter into a stew pan; when it is melted and done making a noise, throw in your onions, and fry them till they begin to look a little brown; then shake in a little flour, and shake them round till they are thick; throw in a little salt, a little pep- per pepper, a quarter of a pint of good gravy, and a tea-spoonful of mustard. Stir all together, and when it is well tasted and of a good thickness, pour it into your dish, and garnish it with fried crumbs of bread and raspings.
