Who said Aussies don't have great culinary taste? Here are some great tasting and inexpensive to prepare hearty vintage Australian meat recipes that anyone can enjoy ...
ROULADES OF BEEF
• ½ lb. Fillet of Beef -- 9d.
*
• ½ lb. Cold Boiled Bacon -- 4d.
*
• 1 Egg -- 1d.
*
• 1 ½ oz. Dripping
*
• ½ pint Gravy
*
• Pepper and Mustard
*
• 2 oz. Crumbs -- 1d.
*
• Total Cost -- 1s. 3d.
*

Trim away the fat from the fillet and cut it into very small thin slices, and cut the bacon also into thin slices, but smaller. Spread the side of the beef with mustard and pepper, cover with bacon, and roll up as lightly as possible. When all are rolled beat up an egg, mix it with a spoonful of water, brush over the rolls; cover them with crumbs and thread on a small skewer. Put the dripping into a frying-pan, and when quite hot lay in the rolls and fry until a good colour. Place on a hot dish and slip out the skewers. Make the gravy hot, season and flavour, and pour boiling round the roulades. Should there be any brown sauce in the larder it is nicer than gravy.
VEAL SHAPE
• 2 lbs. Neck of Veal -- 8d.
*
• 1 Lemon
*
• Pepper and Salt -- 1/2d.
*
• ¼ lb. Ham or Bacon -- 2d.
*
• 3 Eggs
*
• ½ pint Stock -- 3d.
*
• Total Cost -- 1s. 11/2 d.
*
• Time—Three Hours
*
Put the meat into a saucepan with the rind of the lemon cut very thinly, pour in the stock and simmer very gently for three hours; if the bacon is not cooked put it in and stew it for the last half-hour, then take up the meat and ham, cut it off the bones, and put these back in the saucepan and let them boil quickly without the lid. Boil the eggs hard and cut them in slices and arrange in a plain mould or dish, then lay in the veal and ham, and season with pepper and salt. Strain and flavour the gravy, add the lemon juice, and pour it over the meat. Set aside until quite cold, then turn out.
This is a very nice breakfast or luncheon dish.
