Calf's Brains Fried

Printed no. 568Chapter 131868 edition

The brains are to be prepared in the first instance as shown in No. 566, and when cold, are to be cut into slices—lengthwise—of about a quarter of an inch in thickness; these must be dipped in frying batter No. 288, fried in sufficient very hot lard, or other frying fat —to make them swim; turn them lightly over the whole time they are being fried, in order that they may be equally browned all over; and when done, and crisp, drain and dish them up on a napkin with fried parsley, and serve one of the following sauces separately in a sauce-boat: viz,—tomata, piquante, poor-man's, ravigotte, Robert, &c.
