Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 2 lbs skinned catfish fillets
• 1/2 cup wine
• 2 stalks celery
• 1/2 onion
• 1 carrot
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 red pepper
• 1/2 onion
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2/3 cup fish-fry mix, cajun flavor recommended

Recipe

• 1 chop the vegetables for the bouillon.
• 2 add water, wine and vegetables in a sauce pan.
• 3 bring to a simmer and add the fish, simmering until fish is cooked.
• 4 drain the fish well and let it cool (retain the boullion - it's a good stock for fish chowders).
• 5 finely chop the pepper and the onion.
• 6 add the chopped vegetables, beaten eggs and mayonnaise and seasonings to the fish and chill this mixture.
• 7 form about 8 cakes from the fish mixture and coat it lightly in your favorite fish coating - we like a cajun flavored mix.
• 8 fry in hot oil, serve with favorite sauce.
