- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon capers, drained and minced
- 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons finely minced celery
- 2 tablespoons finely minced red onion
- 4 anchovies, rinsed and minced
- 1 teaspoon dry English mustard
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt/ pepper blend
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1 quart vegetable oil
- Four 6-inch brioche or kaiser buns
- Butter, for toasting
- Four 5-ounce catfish fillets
- 1 cup all-purpose flour seasoned with 1 teaspoon Cajun spice
- 2 cups egg wash (equal parts milk and egg)
- 1 cup coarse cornmeal
- 1 cup shredded romaine
- 8 slices tomatoes
- 1 cup thinly sliced red onion
Method
- For the remoulade: In medium mixing bowl, whisk together the ketchup, mayo, vinegar, capers and horseradish.
- Then add the celery, onions and anchovies to the above mixture.
- Then add the dry mustard, paprika, salt/pepper blend and cayenne.
- Mix well and store up to 7 days.
- Best to prepare 1 day in advance and do not puree or pulse the vegetables, they should be hand cut.
- Yield: 1 1/2 cups.
- For the catfish: Preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Then toast the buns in a skillet with warmed butter over medium heat until light brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
- In batches, lightly coat the fish fillets with the flour/spice mixture, tap off excess any flour and then dip the fillets into the egg wash.
- Finally finish the fillets in the cornmeal.
- Then drop the breaded fillets in the oil and fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the fish from the oil and allow any excess oil to drip off.
- To build the sandwiches, toss the lettuce with the remoulade, and then place on the bottom bun.
- Add the tomatoes, onions, fish and the top bun.
- Serve.
