ingredients


Tartar Sauce

1 cup mayonnaise
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 dill pickle, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

Catfish Cakes

1/2 cup cooked corn
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cooked catfish fillets, flaked
1 cup soft bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter

directions

Combine the tartar sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Cover and place in the refrigerator while preparing the catfish.

Combine the corn, green onions, parsley, eggs, and salt in a large bowl. Mix well. Gently stir in the flaked catfish and bread crumbs and mix until well combined.

Form the catfish mixture into equal sized balls (you should get 8-12 for the standard recipe) and flatten gently to form patties.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and butter.

When the oil mixture is hot, add the catfish cakes (in batches if necessary) and cook until golden brown. Flip carefully and cook on the other side. Each side should take 4-6 minutes.

Serve the catfish cakes immediately with the tartar sauce on the side.
