FRIED CATFISH WITH TATOES image

I LOVE FISH!!! You can't beat fried catfish with fries and coleslaw. I used a electric skillet, with oil and frozen pond raised catfish. Fried them until golden brown and place fries and coleslaw on a platter and went to heaven.

This recipe was a disaster! The fish was overcooked and the potatoes were mushy.

I'm not a fan of fried food, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The catfish was cooked perfectly and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover catfish. I made it with some catfish that I had leftover from a fish fry and it was delicious.

I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra seasoning to the fish and potatoes and it was much better.
