Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 garlic clove
1/4 cup well-stirred tahini
1/3 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
two 6-ounce catfish fillets

Steps:

  • Coarsely chop garlic and in a blender purée with tahini, water, lemon juice, cumin, and salt until smooth.

In a 10-inch nonstick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté fish 2 minutes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my catfish fillets turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked them.

The catfish was a bit overcooked, but the tahini sauce was delicious.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

I'm allergic to tahini, so I substituted Greek yogurt in the sauce. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it twice now and it's always a hit. The catfish is always crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the tahini sauce is the perfect complement.
