The Best Southern Fried Catfish | Pan Fried Catfish Recipe | Mattie’s Kitchen

#MattiesKitchen, in this video Mattie will be making the "Best Southern Fried Catfish." Fried Catfish is one of the most popular meals in the South. Although it can be prepared in a variety of ways, frying it in a cornmeal is the most traditional. Despite many recipes for fried catfish, plain cornmeal is one of my favorites. Pair this catfish with some hush puppies and coleslaw and enjoy the "Best Southern Catfish" you ever tasted. So sit back and relax as you enjoy this cooking show from start to finish! If you have a question, feel free to leave a comment. Mattie's Kitchen 👍🏿

Great looking catfish! I agree coleslaw and fries will go perfect with this

[@bayanon7532]

Mattie, I love you! Thank you for your hard work and great videos. To turn that fish and anything else, get yourself some of those long silver tongs. The work great and are cheap. I use mine most every day, especially when frying. Keep up the good works. The world is a better place because of you ...... OH! we need a video of that cole slaw you talk about.

[@KahavaveCAPIPI]

Whenever I'm just cooking for myself or maybe one other person, I normally use a skillet that fits the fillet with just enough room to spare so there's no concern about spillage. Or, if for some reason that's not an option, I just chop up the fillet to make nuggets. Saves even more than just using a skillet, though it does have the cost that you have to be a bit more patient since you can really only do one at a time.

[@mattieskitchen794]

I wish you would have said how hot your oil was! What setting was the burner on? I'm not an experienced cook so I need to know those things! But thanks for the video. Everything else was a help but I'll have to ask someone else how hot to make my oil.

[@mattieskitchen794]

Medium high or until get hot not hot.

[@joy4434]

Do you ever mix neal with flour for fried chicken ?

[@mattieskitchen794]

I have tried it before it was okay. I don’t think I would do it again.

[@alexgreen8109]

The goal in frying catfish is to have an even batter/outer crust. When the catfish is served it should look perfect! It should not be served without blemishes. Sorry to say it but your catfish, as a finished product, has blemishes. Pay attention to that the next time, otherwise it looks delicious!

[@johnannaburke1625]

Spatula and a fork

[@mattieskitchen794]

That's all you need!

[@acummings3869]

You are spreading bacteria all over the kitchen when you touch that raw meat and then touch everything in the kitchen without washing your hands.

[@mattieskitchen794]

Thanks

[@TyeJack203]

You have to get tongs, no way around it. To big of a risk of a big splash of hot grease using a spatula

[@mattieskitchen794]

yeah you definitely have to be careful, for new cooks I would say yes but for me I've been cooking so long I guess I never thought of that or even scared that would happen.

[@wanitakollie3664]

Why you did not list your recipe like everyone? We couldn't see the names of the products you were putting in the cornmeal

[@mattieskitchen794]

So sorry!!! Please sub

[@Wisdom_tree7]

Hello sis. It’s only obvious you’re a southern cook but when you constantly say you don’t like this and that, it doesn’t sound good. Your audience is not interested in what you don’t like-just cook.

[@mattieskitchen794]

Just listen. Thanks
