Cornmeal Catfish with Avocado Sauce image

When I was growing up in California, my mother made catfish quite often, and it was always a hit. Now I cook it with my own twist. When only frozen catfish fillets are available, I thaw them in the refrigerator overnight, and they work just as well. -Mary Lou Cook, Welches, Oregon

This dish was just okay. The catfish was a bit bland and the avocado sauce was not very flavorful. I would not recommend this recipe.

The catfish was a bit overcooked, but the avocado sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the catfish for a shorter amount of time to prevent it from becoming dry.

This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. The catfish was crispy, but the avocado sauce was too heavy. I would recommend using less oil when cooking the catfish and making a lighter version of the avocado sauce.
