3 cups mashed potatoes. 3 table-spoonfuls cream. 2 table-spoonfuls butter. Salt and pepper.

Yolks of four hard-boiled eggs.

1 raw egg, beaten well. Handful dry, fine bread-crumbs.

Beat up the potatoes while hot, with the cream, but ter and raw egg, seasoning well. Put a layer in the bottom of a buttered baking-dish; cover this with thin slices of yolk, salt and pepper; then another layer of potato, and so on, until all the materials are used up. The top layer should be potato. Strew bread-crumbs thickly over this. Bake covered until hot through, then brown quickly. Serve in the baking-dish.
