Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 lbs catfish (fillets)
salt
pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp onion powder
peanut oil (for frying )
hot sauce

Directions:

Wash and drain well fillets.
Season fillets with salt and pepper.
Mix eggs with lemon juice, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
In a recatngluar type dish for dredging mix flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper.
Dip fillet in egg then flour making sure to get a really good coating on the fish, pat the flour in to get a good seal- if desired do it twice to get a heavy coating on.
We use a long cast iron frying pan that covers two burners on the stove to fry but you can fry outside or in a deep fryer using peanut oil which withstands higher heats. heat your oil very hot.
Fry a few fillets at a tme until golden brown and let drain on paper towels or brown paper bags.
Serve with tartarsauce, lemon juice and hot sauce if sesired.
