Serve with sauce. BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING. No. 1.

Beat four eggs till quite light; and then stir them into the milk, &c. alternately with the grated corn, a little of each at a time.

TURKEY PATTIES. Mince some of the white part, and season it with grated lemon, nutmeg, salt, a dust of white pepper, a spoonful of cream, and a very small piece of butter warmed. Fill the patties, and bake them. TURKEY PIE. Break the bones, and beat the turkey flat on the breast.
