POTATOES (CURRIED)

6 good-sized potatoes parboiled
1 oz. of butter
1 teaspoonful of curry powder
3/4 pint of milk
1 dessertspoonful of fine wheatmeal
salt and lemon juice to taste

Slice the potatoes into a saucepan and pour the milk over them; smooth the curry powder with a little water, pour this over the potatoes, and add the butter and seasoning. Let the potatoes cook gently until soft; then thicken with the meal, which should be previously smoothed with a little milk or water. Let all simmer for 2 or 3 minutes; add lemon juice, and serve.
