The Savoury Balls

1/2 lb self-raising flour
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper
2 to 3 oz. finely chopped suet
A pinch thyme and sage
Water to mix

Method: Mix all the dry ingredients and make into a light dough with cold water. Divide into small balls, roll each in flour, and drop into the boiling stew. The same balls may be cooked with a boiled leg or shoulder of mutton. For a change, add a small minced onion to the above ingredients.
