Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Jointed roasting chicken
2 tb Lemon juice
1 t Powdered Cinnamon
4 1/2 tb Flour, seasoned with paprika
-and bay leaf
Vegetable oil for shallow
-frying
2 Not-quite-ripe bananas
5 fl Milk or single cream

Put three tablespoons of the seasoned flour on a plate
and reserve the rest.

Rub the chicken joints with the lemon juice and
cinnamon and dip into the three tablespoons of flour
so each piece is well coated.

Put just one-quarter inch of oil into a large frying
pan with a lid and heat the oil until it is just on
the point of smoking.

Put in the chicken pieces and brown on all sides, then
turn the heat down. Cover the pan and cook for 20
minutes, turning once. When the chicken is thoroughly
cooked, put it on to a serving dish and keep warm.

Slice the bananas, dust them lightly with a little of
the remaining seasoned flour and saute quickly in the
hot oil. Put them on the dish with the chicken.

Make corn fritters (separate recipe), make the gravy.

Pour away the oil in the frying pan and add the last
tablespoon of seasoned flour to the pan.

Cook, stirring, until it is brown, then pour in the
milk or cream and stir again to make a smooth gravy.
