Battery Celery – Allinson Vegetarian Cookery Book
1 large head of celery, 1 pint of milk, 3 eggs, 6 oz. Allinson fine
wheatmeal, 2 oz. butter, 1 English onion, pepper and salt to taste.
Prepare the celery, cut it into small pieces, chop up the onion pretty
fine, and stew both gently in half the milk and the butter and
seasoning. Make a batter meanwhile with the rest of the milk, the eggs
and the wheatmeal. When the celery and onion are quite tender mix the
batter with them; grease a pie-dish, pour the mixture into it, and
bake the savoury for 1-1/2 hours. Eat with potatoes and tomato sauce.
