CAULIFLOWER WITH CURRIED EGG SAUCE

A nice compact cauliflower, mashed potato, ¹⁄₂ pint curry sauce, 2 hard-boiled eggs, 2 tomatoes.

Method.—Boil the cauliflower until it is tender and drain it carefully on a hot, soft cloth. Make some mashed potato into a moderately thick, round cake and fry it in a small quantity of hot fat until it is nicely browned, then turn it on to a hot dish; place the cauliflower on it and cover the latter with the curry sauce, to which the eggs have been added after being coarsely chopped; garnish the edge of the dish with slices of fried tomato and serve directly it is ready. A recipe for curry sauce will be found on page 104.
