Source: In The Kitchen With Rosie Cookbook DOTTIE, in Irvine, CA 7-26-94 This really tastes just like fried catfish, but it has only a third of the calories and a sixth of the fat of the traditional version. Garnish, if you wish, with sprigs of parsley tucked under the catfish fillets, or with lemon wedges. Cut the pointed ends off the lemon before cutting if into wedges, exposing more of the delicate fruit. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
