POTATO PUFF.

1 pint of mashed potatoes, 2 oz. of butter, 3 eggs, 1/2 pint of milk, 1/2 a saltspoonful of nutmeg, pepper and salt to taste, and a dessertspoonful of finely chopped parsley.  Beat the butter with a fork until it creams, mix the potatoes with the butter, whip the yolks of the eggs well with the milk, and stir in the other ingredients.  Add the nutmeg, parsley, and seasoning, and last of all the whites of the eggs, beaten to a stiff froth.  The potatoes, butter, eggs, and milk should be well beaten separately before being used, as the success of the dish depends on this.  Turn the mixture into a buttered pie-dish, and bake it for 1 hour in a hot oven.

POTATO ROLLS (BAKED).

2 lbs. of cold mashed potatoes, 1 boiled Spanish onion, 1 oz. of butter, the yolk of 1 egg, a little nutmeg, pepper and salt to taste, and a teaspoonful of powdered thyme.  Chop up the onion fine, and mix it with the mashed potatoes.  Warm the butter until melted, and add this, the yolk of egg, and the thyme.  Mix all well, make the mixture into little rolls 3 inches long, brush them over with a pastry brush dipped in Allinson nut-oil or hot butter and bake them on a floured tin until brown, which will take from 10 to 20 minutes.  Serve with brown sauce and vegetables.

Potato rolls (Spanish).

3 teacupfuls of mashed potatoes, 3 tablespoonfuls of Allinson fine wheatmeal, 18 olives, 1 egg well beaten; seasoning to taste.  Stone the olives and chop them up fine, mix the meal, mashed potato, olive, and egg well together, season with pepper and salt; add a little milk if necessary, make the mixture into rolls, and proceed as in “Potato Rolls.”

POTATO SALAD (1).

4 medium-sized cold boiled potatoes, 1 small onion minced very fine, 1 dessertspoonful of finely chopped parsley, oil and lemon juice, pepper and salt to taste.  Slice the potatoes, let them soak with 3 tablespoonfuls of water, mix them with the onion and parsley, and dress like any other salad.  Any good salad dressing may be used.

POTATO SALAD (2).

1-1/2 pints of mashed potatoes, 2 hard-boiled eggs, 2 tablespoonfuls of Allinson salad oil, 1/2 a teacupful of milk, 1 teaspoonful of mustard, pepper, salt, and lemon juice to taste.  Make a dressing of the oil, milk, mustard, and seasoning.  Mash the yolks of the eggs and mix them with the lemon juice, and add this to the dressing.  Chop the whites of the eggs up fine.  Mix the mashed potatoes, dressing, and chopped whites of eggs well together.  Turn the mixture into a salad bowl or glass dish, and garnish with parsley or watercress and beetroot.

POTATO SALAD (MASHED).

1/2 pint of mashed potatoes, 2 hard-boiled eggs, 2 tablespoonfuls of Allinson salad oil, 1 dessertspoonful of sugar, 1 teaspoonful of mustard, pepper and salt to taste, 2 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice and seasoning; mash the yolks of the eggs quite fine and mix them smooth with the lemon juice, and add this to the dressing.  Chop the whites of the eggs up very fine, mix all together; turn the mixture smoothly into a salad bowl or glass dish, and garnish with watercress and beetroot.
