Orange Fritters Recipe 1 ingredients

• 1 pint of milk
• 4 ounces flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 sweet oranges
• Few drops vanilla essence

To prepare this Orange Fritters Recipe 1, first mix the flour with a little of the cold milk, put the remainder of the milk into a double saucepan, and when nearly boiling, add the flour and the milk; when thickened strain well, and put back into the saucepan to obtain the right consistency; add the sugar and essence of vanilla.

Peel the oranges, divide into sections, remove the white skin, and pits, and cook in half a pint of water and four ounces of sugar for about ten minutes; then take up, and drain on a sieve. Drop the orange sections into the above batter, mixing the whole carefully. Fry the fritters in hot butter or oil, taking each orange section up with a spoon, with ample batter to well cover it, and so dropping it to the fat. Do not fry too many at a time. When of a golden color take them up, and drain well on a paper or a cloth. Dredge with icing sugar, and serve plain or with an orange flavored syrup. These are also used to garnish a rice or vermicelli mold.
