Fried Catfish  

6 catfish fillets (good size) 

½ teaspoon Salt 

¼ teaspoon Black pepper 

Few drops of your favorite hot sauce (optional) 

1 cup All−purpose flour 

1 cup Cornmeal 

2 teaspoon baking powder 

½ teaspoon salt 

¼ cup canola oil

Sprinkle fillets on both sides with the pepper and ½ teaspoon of the salt 

and desired amount of hot sauce (Don't go overboard here; catfish has a 

delicate flavor, and the idea is just to suggest some spice − not 

overpower). 

Allow fillets to set at room temperature for 10 or 15 minutes.

Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and remaining salt, mixing well.

Dredge 

fillets in the flour/cornmeal mixture, and fry in hot oil for 8 to 10 

minutes, turning once, until golden brown on both sides.

Serve at once
