Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 whole eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sweet relish
1 teaspoon mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 catfish fillet
Fresh dill sprigs, for garnish
Paprika, for garnish

Steps:

  • Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and put them in a bowl and then mash with a fork. Add in the mayonnaise, relish and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • Heat about 1-inch of vegetable oil in a skillet until a deep-frying thermometer reads 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow dish and dip the fish in the batter.
  • Fry the fish until golden brown on both sides. Place on a paper-towel-lined plate to soak up any excess oil and season with salt. Let cool.
  • Add the catfish to the yolk mixture and break up with fork. Spoon some of the yolk mixture into each egg half and garnish with dill and paprika to serve.
