Here is one of Chef Folse's heirloom recipes. These are excellent as a base for a fish burger or as a patty. Great tasting in a brown, roux-based gravy. Boulettes de Poisson 1 pound new potatoes, peeled and diced 1/2 cup minced onions 1/2 cup minced celery 1/4 cup minced garlic 1/4 cup sliced green onions 2 eggs Salt and black pepper, to taste Cayenne pepper, to taste Granulated garlic, to taste 1/2 cup vegetable oil, divided 1 cup seasoned flour In a 1-gallon saucepot, add 4 inches lightly salted water. Bring to a rolling boil and reduce to a low simmer. Add catfish and poach until fork tender but not falling apart. Drain and reserve liquid. Return poaching liquid to a low boil, add potatoes and cook 12-15 minutes or until tender enough to mash. Drain potatoes then place in a large mixing bowl. Add fish, onions, celery, minced garlic, green onions and eggs to potatoes, then season to taste with salt, peppers and granulated garlic. Stir to mix well. Form mixture into hamburger-sized patties. In a 10-inch skillet, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium-high heat. Dust patties with seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Add patties to hot oil, 2-3 at a time, and fry 7-10 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally. Using a spatula, remove and place on paper towels to drain. Continue until all patties are cooked, adding more vegetable oil to skillet as needed. Serve warm. Note: If desired, form the mixture into meatballs and deep fry or cook in a brown or tomato gravy. -- Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -- Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore
