FILLETS OF WHITINGS, A LA ROYALE.
TRIM and marinade the fillets of whitings in the manner directed for preparing whitings à la Horly (No. 487). About twenty minutes before dinner, drain the fillets on a napkin, and then dip each fillet separately in some light batter made for the purpose; as soon as they are done, and have acquired a light-brown colour, take the fillets out of the fat on to a cloth, with the corners of which toss them lightly to absorb any grease they may retain; then dish the fillets up either in a pyramidal form, or else in a circle, and pour some white Ravigotte, white Italian, Venetian, or Dutch sauce, under and round them, and send to table.
