The Major's Curry.
Take ½ a breakfastcupful of good beef stock in a small stew-
pan and into it stir a good sized piece of butter; when melted,
but not hot, add 1 lb. of lean meat cut into nice square slices,
4 large sliced onions, and 6 cloves of garlic*.
Cover it up close to stew for 1 hour. Then take a spoonful of
curry powder, mix it well with the meat, and let all stew again
for 1 hour, stir it frequently. Then add salt and cayenne, or a
fresh chilli.
A head of cauliflower or broccoli is considered an improve-
ment, and must be put in time enough to stew thoroughly with
the other things.
