Pear Fritters (Peel cut in halves remove)

Peel, cut in halves, remove the seeds from six ripe, sweet, medium-sized pears, place on a plate, add tablespoon powdered sugar, half a teaspoon ground cinnamon and one tablespoon maraschino, turn well in the seasoning and let infuse for fifteen minutes. Prepare a frying batter. Roll the pears in the batter and drop, one by one, in boiling fat and gently fry for ten minutes, turning with a skimmer occasionally. Lift up, drain on a cloth, lightly trim them, sprinkle over a little powdered sugar, dress on a dish with a folded napkin laid over and serve.
