Take three large Spanish onions, chop
them very fine, put them into a vege-
table pan to fry in oil. Let them
brown. When cooked, add n pint of
milk and one pint of cream, and a

ready to pass through the wire sieve.
When this is done. add two tablespoon
fuls of the best Indian curry powder,
and half a. small teaspoonfuI of tur-
meric powder. Mix well, and. return it
into the same pan. Then place your

and let it cook gently, Swimming OF
the oil as it rises. Season to taste, and
