ORANGE FRITTERS (another way)

To make the batter, see BATTER FOR FRYING. Divide some oranges into quarters; do it carefully so that none of the juice shall escape; the thick white or outer skin must be removed, but the thin skin that holds in the juices should be kept sound. Dip the pieces of orange in sherry, then into fine sugar, and lastly into the batter. Fry, and send to table in pyramid fashion, with powdered sugar over them, and a napkin on the dish. Fritters may be made with a variety of fruit--pears, strawberries, etc. Probable cost, 10d. Time to fry, five minutes. Sufficient for a small dish.
