Dinner Tonight 8/7/2013

Baked catfish topped with crispy crumb topping
Steamed fresh broccoli & yellow squash

I melted about 1 Tbs. butter. In a small bowl I combined about 3 Tbs.
finely ground cornmeal (almost like masa harina) with about a Tbs. of
flour. I seasoned this with salt, pepper, a dash of dill weed and sweet
paprika. I stirred the butter into the dry mixture until it resembled
moist crumbs.

Place the catfish fillets in a baking dish with a little bit of water in
the bottom of the dish; not enough to steam the fish but enough to keep
it moist. Sprinkle/spread the top of the fillets with the crumb
topping. Bake at 350F about 20 minutes, until fish is tender and
topping is browned.

The broccoli/squash combo got a squeeze of fresh lemon juice rather than
butter. Most people would squeeze some lemon on the fish. I've never
cared much for that, although lots of people think lemon & fish is the
cats meow.

What's for dinner in your house?

Regardless of where it should have been posted, it sounds WONDERFUL!

Oh, I thought you were just responding in rpca's way of treating a
spammer (Probably the political moron who signs his name in cyrillic
letters.)

I'm glad you posted it here if it was an accident. I've printed it for my
recipe file. Thank you. I love fish.

Judith

You're welcome! Any mild white fish will do.
