Vegetable Marrow Rings With Tomato Batter Recipe
1 medium-sized vegetable marrow.
8 ounces tomato pulp.
1 egg.
1 tablespoon flour.
2 ounces butter.
1 gill milk.
A little pepper and salt.
Peel the vegetable marrow, cut it into even rings about three-quarters
of an inch thick, and remove the seeds neatly (this is best done by the
aid of a pastry cutter). Dissolve the butter in a baking tin, place the
rings in, sprinkle a little salt on them, and bake in a hot oven for
half an hour, then turn them over and bake another half hour. Meanwhile
prepare the batter as follows:--take half a pound of cooked tomato pulp,
as dry as possible, and chop it well; add pepper and salt if not already
seasoned. Make a batter with the egg, flour and milk, add the tomato
pulp, and stir all well together. When the rings of marrow have been
cooking one hour, remove from the oven, fill up the centres with the
batter, replace in the oven, and bake another half hour.
Tomato sauce No. 179 should be served with this dish, which can be
specially recommended.
