SAUSAGE GLISTEN


Mny. pleasant month though it i.s, is frequently a busy one for


women. It often marks the start of the spring-cleaning, house­ decorating season with all the


consequent upheaval and com­ motion. Of course the considerate


housewife makes certain that her family docs not have to put up


with make-shif*. meals during these hectic times. And there i.s often a need for light but sus­ taining meals which can be pre­ pared without too much trouble. British pork and bacon—


always splendid value—arc par­ ticularly useful to the busy woman. They lend themselves edimarblv to trouble-free cook­ ing and their subtle tastes blend well with seasonal vegetables.


P O R K S A U S A G E G L I S T E N Ingredients: lib. pork sausage.-. 1 tablespoon made mustard. 2 tablespoons clear honey. 1 tablespoon warm water. Noodles. .Serves 4 people. Approx cost 4s. Method : Prick sausage.- and roll bet­


ween hands to get a good shape. Melt the mustard, honey and water together in a frying pan.


Turn heat down and add the sausages. Cook gently, turning frequently, for 15 minutes. Serve on a bod of noodle.- and green salad.
