Apple Fritters

Peel and core three good-sized sound apples. Cut each apple in four even slices, lay them on a plate, dredge a tablespoon fine sugar over, pour in two tablespoons rum, then repeatedly turn them in the seasoning and let infuse for half hour, turning them in the rum once in a while. Dip the slices of apples in the frying batter, then gently drop them one by one into boiling fat and fry for eight minutes, frequently turning with a skimmer meanwhile. Take them up, and let drain on a wire grater. Neatly trim them all around. Pour a rum sauce on a hot dish. Arrange the fritters over the sauce, one overlapping another. Sprinkle a little powdered sugar over and serve.
