Take the heart and liver from the haslet, and cut off the windpipe; boil the lights very tender, and cut them in small pieces. Take as much of the water they were boiled in as will be sufficient for gravy, add to it a large spoonful of white wine, one of lemon pickle, some grated nutmeg, pepper and salt, with a large spoonful of butter mixed with one of white flour. Let it boil a few minutes, put in the minced lights, and set it by till the heart and liver are ready. Cut the ventricle out of the heart, wash it well, and lard it all over with narrow strips of middling. Fill the cavity with good forcemeat, and put it in a pan on the broad end, that the stuffing may not come out. Bake it a nice brown. Slice the liver an inch thick, broil it, set the heart upright in the middle of the dish, make the minced lights hot, pour the mince around it, lay the broiled liver on, and garnish with bunches of fried parsley. It should be served up extremely hot. This is a very nice dish.
