Ingredients:
6 oz. potatoes
4 oz. lemons
1/4 lb. sugar
1/4 lb. butter
cream
pie crust
Instructions:
Boil six ounces of potatoes, and four of lemon—peel, beat the latter in a marble mortar with a quarter of a pound of sugar, then add the same quantity of butter, melted in a little cream, and the potatoes beaten: mix well and let it stand to cool; put crust in patty-pans, rather more than half fill them, sift some sugar over, and bake half an hour in a quick oven.
