Catfish Cake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Catfish

    In a pot of boiling water, cook the catfish fillets for about 10 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from water, let cool, and then flake the fish into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked catfish, breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, mayonnaise, eggs, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into patties, about 1 inch thick. You should get around 6-8 cakes depending on size.

  4. 4

    Fry the Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the catfish cakes in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the cakes from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
