“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it."

Recipe Ingredients:

1/2 cup Green pepper, chopped finely
1/2 cup Flour
3/4 cup Yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup Onion, minced finely
2 cup Ground round
5 tbsp Oil, (far to much by today's standard
1 cup Tomato sauce
2 tbsp Tomato catup
2 tsp Salt, (far to much by today's standard
Dash lemon pepper
1 tsp Chili powder
Sugar sub equlivalent to 1 tb sugar
2 tsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Thyme
1/4 cup Egg, (1 med)
1/2 cup Skim milk

Preheat oven to 400F. Saute pepper, onion, beef in 2 tablespoons of
oil in skillet, until beef is well browned. Stir in tomato sauce,
catup, 1 ts salt(ugh), lemon pepper, add chili powder. Put into 1
1/2 quart casserole. Stir flour, cornmeal, sweetener, baking powder,
remaining salt (ugh) and thyme together in a bowl; then add egg milk,
and rest of oil. Stir until smooth. Top the first mixture with
second and bake, uncovered, or until the cornmeal is sightly brown
and firm to touch (about 1 hour). Loosen cornmeal with a knife around

“Americans can eat garbage, provided you sprinkle it liberally with ketchup, mustard, chili sauce, tabasco sauce, cayenne pepper, or any other condiment which destroys the original flavor of the dish.”
