Beignets de Camembert — Camembert Fritters. Clean a whole camembert and rub it through a fine sieve ; add the same amount of well reduced Bechamel, and thicken with 3 egg yolks ; season with salt and red pepper, and put away to get cold. When very cold and hard, shape into small, round, flat croquettes, dip in beaten eggs, roll in bread crumbs, and fry in hot lard. Serve on a napkin with fried parsley
