kromeskies in a cool place until required. Then have ready some thin batter in a basin, and boiling lard in a saucepan. Dip the kromeskies into the batter, and then drop them into the lard. In two or three seconds they will be cooked ; lift them out with a fish-slice, and drain on a sieve before the fire. Care must be taken that the lard is the exact heat, or the kromeskies will have either a burnt or sodden appearance. Dish up on a doily, or embossed blotting- paper. Garnish with fried parsley
