Favourite Dishes Of Politicians
(Special Correspondent N.Z.P.A.) (Rec. 8 p.m.) LONDON, November 18. The wives of Conservative politicians have given away their favourite recipes and the ones popular with their husbands, in a booklet published by the Doncaster Conservatives’ Association to sell at a local fete. It was meant to be just a “gimmick,” but at half a crown a copy it is. according to the fete organiser, “still selling like hot cakes.” Mrs R. A. Butler’s receipe for an egg savoury, which her husband, the Home Secretary, “loves very much” is made of chopped hard boiled eggs with mushrooms, goose liver pate, onions and butter. \ Mrs Marples, wife of the Transport Minister, Mr Ernest Marples, likes lamb cutlets navarraise—cutlets cooked with diced ham, mushrooms, pimentos and Parmesan cheese. The choice of Lady Dorothy Macmillan, wife of the Prime Minister, is pea pod soup—pods of freshly-shelled peas boiled for 10 minutes, mashed through a sieve and then boiled up with milk.
