Oranges
Broiled Bacon Potatoes Browned In Cream
Cut the oranges in half, crosswise. Serve on a fruit plate with an orange spoon.
Melt 2 T butter in a frying pan, add 2 T flour, mix well together and cook until the flour is well browned; then add 1 c milk gradually, stirring all the time until the mixture thickens and boils. Add 2 c boiled potatoes cut into dice, mix thoroughly, spread on pan and brown, without stirring, letting the surplus moisture evaporate. Turn one-half over the other like an omelet, place on a hot platter and serve.
