Side Pannel
Fried Catfish #1
Ingredients List
- 4 lb Catfish fillets
- 1 c Milk for soaking
- 1/2 c Flour
- 1 1/2 c Cornmeal
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 2 ts Crab & shrimp seasoning
- -(commercial or see recipe)
- Oil for deep- or pan-frying
Directions
This is the quickest way I know to enjoy the flavor of catfish. Soaking
in milk makes the fish mild in taste and tender in texture. You don't
necessarily have to deep-fry this one, though that is the most common
method used in the South. I like it pan-fried just as well. It is a
completely different dish.
Cut the fillets into serving pieces of about 4 ounces each. Soak all the
fish in the milk for 1 hour. Mix the flour, cornmeal, salt and pepper, and
the crab and shrimp seasoning together. Drain the fish and dredge in the
cornmeal mixture.
Deep-fry in 375ø oil, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown. Keep
pieces warm in a 200ø oven until all is complete, or pan-fry on both sides
in a bit of oil or butter until the fish is lightly browned and done to
your liking. Do not overcook catfish.
Traditionally, deep-fried catfish was served with hushpuppies. I am
convinced that you also need a great deal of very cold beer with this
catfish fry.
