heaping teaspoonful of butter, little
chopped parsley, with pepper and salt
and little cream. Let them simmer

roll them in fine cracker crumbs, being
careful to cover them thoroughly. AS
they are Dreaded, put them into fry
ing basket and plunge them into boil
ing-hot fat Fry them about four min
utes; drain and slip them on brown
paper to absorb any extraneous fat.
Then put them on a napkin on hot
platter. Serve them with Gelicately-
