Curry No 2 Recipe
Chop one or two onions very fine; put them into a stewpan with some
butter, and let them remain on a slow fire till they are well done,
taking care not to let them burn. Pour off the butter: put in one
dessert spoonful of powder and a little gravy; stir it about till it is
well mixed; set it on a slow fire till it is all sufficiently done. Put
in a little lemon-juice; when nearly done, thicken the gravy with flour.
Let the rice be very well picked and afterwards cleansed; it ought to be
washed in several waters, and kept in water till it is going to be
boiled. Have the meat or fish ready, pat it into the stewpan, and stir
it about till it is well mixed. The rice must be boiled twenty minutes
quickly, and the scum taken off; the water to be thrown off and the
saucepan uncovered till it is dry enough. Meat used for this curry must
be previously fried.
