Fried Catfish Sandwich
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the Slaw
In a bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to chill.
Prepare the Catfish
In a shallow dish, combine cornmeal, flour, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. In another dish, pour the buttermilk. Dip each catfish fillet into the buttermilk, then dredge in the cornmeal mixture, ensuring it's well coated.
Fry the Catfish
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the catfish fillets and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the fried catfish sandwiches with a side of french fries.
