Mississippi Fried Catfish

Deadly Sushi

Formerly The Giant Mojito
This is a darn simple recipe for almost any occasion. :)

3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
canola oil for frying
4 catfish fillets
tartar sauce
hot sauce (optional)

Combine cornmeal, flour, paprika, salt and both peppers in a shallow bowl or pan. Coat fillets with mixture on both sides, shaking off excess.

Fill a heavy skillet or large frying pan with about an inch of oil. Heat to 350 °F (or when a small piece of the fish bubbles and rises to the top). Add catfish two at time and fry until golden, about 5–6 minutes, turning once. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve with tartar sauce and a dash of hot sauce, if desired.

I miss eating catfish and catching them more. Famous Dave's has it on menu, too.

I'll have to check out the fish monger later and see what I can do.

Cheers!
