Catfish tacos with guacamole salsa
Technically, the fish is Swai, a shark catfish from Southeast Asia, bought at the local A&P supermarket.
Ingredients:
1 lb catfish, cut into bite size pieces.
canola oils
salt & pepper
cayenne pepper
fine ground corn meal
2 avocados
1 lime
cilantro, chopped
1 medium onion, diced
1 vine tomato, diced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced (optional)
corn tortillas
Preparation:
Heat up a wok or deep sided pan with several inches of oil and heat on high. Pat the catfish dry, then season with salt & pepper. Cover with cornmeal and season with cayenne pepper. Using tongs, drop into hot oil and fry until done.
For the guacamole, combine avocados, lime juice, cilantro, onion, tomato in a bowl and season to taste with salt.
For tortillas, wrap in aluminum foil and heat in oven until hot.
For extra goodness, I recommend a creamy white cheese or a feta cheese.
