Two to three hard-boiled eggs, cut into quarters, can be added to the other ingredients if liked. Serve the pie with stewed lettuce prepared thus: Wash some freshly-cut, compact lettuces, then tie each with a piece of narrow white tape, and parboil them; drain them and put them into a buttered stewpan, containing a small quantity of onion, which has been scalded and minced; season with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and a dust of sugar; cover the pan and let them simmer for 10 minutes, then pour in sufficient nicely-flavoured milk-stock to nearly cover them. Place a greased paper over the lettuces before putting on the lid of the pan, and let them cook in a moderate oven until tender; when done, take out the lettuces, untie them, cut them in half, and keep them hot in a vegetable dish while the sauce is being made. Thicken the stock in which the lettuces were cooked with some potato flour mixed with a small quantity of cream, and when it has thickened, add a squeeze of lemon-juice and a sprinkle of chopped parsley, and pour through a pointed strainer over the lettuce. Potato Pastry: Put 1/2 lb potatoes (cooked and sieved) into a basin, add 6 oz flour, season with salt & pepper, and add 1 ts baking powder, then rub in 3 oz butter and moisten sufficiently with beaten egg and cold milk to form a smooth and fairly stiff paste. Knead it well and roll it out on a floured board to about 1/2" thick, and cut into the required size and shape for the pie.
