Imperial Roast Recipe ingredients

• 2 cups diced stale bread
• 2 cups steamed rice
• 2/3 cup chopped ripe olives
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 raw egg
• 2 chopped hard-boiled eggs
• 1-½ tablespoons vegetable fat
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 2 stalks diced celery
• 4 tablespoons chopped onion
• 1-½ cups milk
• Savory and salt to taste

To prepare this Imperial Roast Recipe, first put the flour and the fat into a small saucepan, and stir over the fire until of a light brown color. Add the savory, the onion, and the celery, and stir for a few moments. Then add 1/2 cup of the milk, and stir smooth. Add the remainder of the milk, bring to a boil, salt to taste, pour over the diced bread, and let stand until cold. Beat the egg, and mix all the ingredients except the rice, which is folded in last, using a fork. Press lightly into one large, or two small, previously oiled bread tins, and bake until lightly browned on top. Serve plain, or with cranberry sauce or gravy, or with both.
