Fill them quite full so that they may keep the shape - put about a Tea spoonful of Cold water into them and cover them with a thin Cover [pin?] along them close round the Edge and ornaments to your taste Olive le Roi Take mashed potatoes and rub through a fine cullender - mix some flour with them, and rub in a quarter of a pound of Butter to make it into a Paste, and the yoke of an Egg to Moisten it sufficiently for rolling out - Then have ready some very thin slices of Beef or Veal, well seasoned with pepper & Salt, &c - roll out the paste, and lay the slices of meat on it, roll it up the size of olives, & fry it in butter - send up with gravy in the dish.
