Irish Stew
1 lb potatoes
3/4 lb of onions
1 oz buttered1/2 pint of milk
pepper and salt
Potatoes and onions should be weighed after peeling. Slice and throw them into cold water, bring them quickly to the boiling point and boil for 1 minute, Drain and put them into a double pan. Boil milk and pour it over them. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Add butter. Stew for 2 1/2 hours- Taken from a Yorkshire Cookery Book.
The Steak Monte Carlo recipe has a typo. Either the thickness of the meat is wrong or the cooking time is wrong. The cooking time given is correct for a piece of meat 3/4″ thick. For a tough cut like “round steak” a 1 1/2 lb piece of 3.75″ thickness should be cooked longer – then
sliced verrrrrrrrrrry thinly or it will be extremely “chewy”.
Thank you for your comments on the recipe of 1931. We print them on our site as they are printed in the newspaper.. One must take into account the changes of ovens and their temperature controls over time. Often I have to adjust temperatures and time in my own oven which has a tendency to heat up quite quickly.
