Put them into a stewpan with the tongues on top and add enough good brown stock to cover the vegetables, also a little salt. Cover all, first with a piece of greased paper and then with the lid of the saucepan, and cook very- slowly until both tongues and vegetables are tender. They should be given at least 2i hours. From time to time, baste the tongues with the stock and add a little more stock if necessary. Do not get it too liquid. When* finished, lift the tongues on to a hot dish, add a little tomato sauce or mushroom ketchup to the stock, and pour it and the vegetables round the longues in the dish. Spinach or other green vegetable, plainly cooked, is a good accompaniment.
