SOLE, FILLETS OF (a la Rochfort)
Fillet a pair of soles. Pound a quarter of a pint of shelled shrimps in a mortar with one ounce of butter and a dessert-spoonful of bread-crumbs, and a seasoning of salt and a little cayenne; mix well, and spread a thin layer of the mixture on each fillet. Roll the fillets up neatly, and fix them with a skewer. Egg and bread-crumb them carefully, and arrange them in a frying-basket. Plunge the basket into a saucepan of boiling fat, and fry the fillets to a light golden colour.
