Cauliflower Fritters

Cut into equal-sized pieces two well-boiled cauliflowers, dip each piece into thick yellow or white sauce, and place them one side to cool. Take them out with a spoon, put them into a basin of frying-batter, plunge them into a fryingpan of boiling fat and fry to a good color. Serve very hot on a napkin spread over a dish. If it is preferred, the pieces of cauliflower may be dipped into vinegar, oil, salt and pepper mixed together in place of the batter, and then fried.
