Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, mayonnaise, scallions and relish to make a tartar sauce. Refrigerate until needed.
- Heat oil in deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
- Combine cornmeal, Blackfish Spice and salt and pepper, to taste. Dredge catfish fillets in seasoned cornmeal. Deep-fry coated pieces in batches until they are cooked through, about 10 minutes. (For basic reference, use the manufacturer's instructions for your deep fryer for similar foods, then test the fish see that it is fork tender.) Allow to drain on paper towels and serve with tartar sauce and fresh lemon wedges (to squeeze lemon juice over the fish).

EASY CRISPY FRIED CATFISH
This is a simple and delicious southern fried catfish recipe that I learned from my grandma. This is the same catfish you get in Texas home cooking restaurants, but with less grease. The measurements are not exact, but are very easy to figure out. Serve hot with tartar sauce. Mmmmmm!

Steps:
- In a large skillet, fill pan with 1/2 inch of vegetable oil. Turn on heat to medium or medium high heat.
- Dip catfish in milk, then in cornmeal. Shake off excess cornmeal.
- Once oil is hot, begin frying fish in batches until they are golden brown. Flip fish so each side is cooked evenly.
- (On the 2nd or3rd batch of fish, you may want to reduce the pan heat because it will be extra hot). Add extra oil if needed.
- Drain fish on paper towels and sprinkle with salt or seasoning salt.
- Serve hot with tartar sauce.

CRISPY PAN-FRIED CATFISH WITH HOT SLAW
Frying fish in peanut oil (like using lard for fried chicken) gives catfish the crispiest, least greasy coating imaginable.

Steps:
- Cut the catfish fillets in half lengthwise, and then cut each half diagonally into 2 or 3 long pieces. Pour the buttermilk into a wide, shallow bowl and season it with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some black pepper. Marinate the catfish in the buttermilk at room temperature for 1 hour.
- In another wide, shallow bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, the cayenne, and black pepper to taste.
- Drain the catfish in a colander, and lay the pieces on a plate. Season them with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour about 1 inch of peanut oil into a deep cast-iron skillet and heat it to 350°F over medium heat. In batches, roll the catfish pieces in the flour mixture and gently lay them in the hot oil, being careful not to crowd the pan. Cook for about 4 minutes, until golden brown, and then gently flip; cook for 3 minutes or so. When the pieces are evenly crisp and golden brown, transfer them to a clean brown paper bag to drain. Repeat until all the catfish has been fried. Serve with lemon wedges and hot slaw.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cabbage with the lemon and lime juices, sugar, salt, and serrano chile. Let marinate for at least 15 and up to 30 minutes.
- In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, sauté the onion and garlic in the oil for 2 to 3 minutes, until fragrant and just starting to color. Raise the heat to high, add the cabbage mixture, and toss until very hot but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the butter and cilantro, tossing well to combine. Taste and season with salt if necessary. Serve hot.
PAT'S PAN-FRIED CATFISH
Pretty much every young Appalachian man learns to catch, clean, and fry catfish in his youth. In fact, it was sort of a "rite of passage" for many of us. I have fried it right on the creekbank over my campfire within minutes of catching these delectable freshwater delicacies. This basic recipe has served me well for many years and I still love the great, but mild, flavor which is yielded by pan-frying catfish. Over the past 40 years, I've made a change or two in the recipe on which my elder fishing buddies of that era taught me, but the essential strength of this, or any other fried catfish recipe, is in the cornmeal coating. So, here is an Appalachian catfish recipe which I hope becomes a legacy in your own family -- good eating!

Steps:
- Dry your catfish filets with paper towels.
- Pour 1 cup of the flour on a plate and "dust" the filets and set them aside on another plate for about half an hour. (This process helps to keep the coating on the fish as they fry).
- Next, heat the shortening in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Set up a shallow medium-sized bowl and a dinner plate for "drenching" and "dredging" the fillets.
- In the bowl, break the eggs and beat them a bit, then add the buttermilk and the lemon juice and whisk these ingredients a few seconds until blended.
- On the plate, pour the remaining cup of flour, cornmeal, garlic salt, thyme, table salt, baking soda, and fennel (if you're using it). Mix it up with a fork or with your fingers.
- Dip a fillet into the liquid, coating it totally, and then allow it to drip off a bit. Then, roll it carefully in the flour/cornmeal mix until it is coated all over. Carefully lay the fillet in the hot oil. It should start frying immediately -- if not, your oil is not hot enough!
- Repeat this process until you have half of the fillets in the pan. You don't want to crowd them so plan on doing the fish in two separate batches.
- When the fillets have turned a golden brown on the bottom side, carefully turn them to fry the other side. Remove them to a plate with some paper towels on it once they are golden brown all over (about 3-4 minutes for each side). (The fillets should be snow-white in the thick portion of the fillet, and the meat should "flake apart" when pulled apart with a fork).
- Serve either as a sandwich, or, plate up the fish with side dishes (I like good coleslaw and baked beans with my catfish). A tangy tartar sauce is also good with fried catfish. Enjoy!
- NOTE: Pan-fried catfish makes an EXCELLENT breakfast, along with fried potatoes, when you're camping!
