FRIED CATFISH TOPPED WITH CRAWFISH AU GRATIN SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the onions, peppers and garlic until wilted. Add the flour and stir until a blond roux is achieved, about 2 minutes. Stir in the sugar, chicken base, crab base, granulated garlic, basil, black pepper, cayenne pepper and thyme. Add the milk and wine and cook over medium heat until the milk thickens, stirring constantly, about 6 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until the cheese melts and fully incorporates into the sauce. Add the crawfish tails and cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Add the green onions just before serving.
• For the catfish: Sprinkle the catfish with Creole seasoning. In a small bowl, beat the eggs and add the milk. Coat the catfish in flour and dip in the milk/egg mixture, then coat with cornmeal. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a large skillet. Fry the catfish until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Serve the catfish with the crawfish au gratin sauce.

FRIED RAVIOLI WITH CRAWFISH CREAM SAUCE RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Prep crawfish and vegetables. Line a wire cooling rack with a couple layers of paper towels then place rack on a cooking sheet. Set aside. Heat about 2 inches vegetable oil in a medium pot to 350°. Combine Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, whisk the eggs. Dip raviolis in egg wash and then coat in bread crumb mixture. Place coated raviolis on a large platter until ready to fry. Preheat oven to 150° F. When oil is hot, start dropping in the coated raviolis, a few at a time, and deep fry until they float to the top and brown. As they are cooked, transfer them to the paper towel lined wire rack and place in the warm oven. Make the Crawfish Sauce: Melt the butter in a medium skillet or pot over medium heat and saute onion, bell pepper, and celery until soft but not browned, stirring constantly. Stir in garlic and cook and stir for another minute. Add crawfish tails and cook until heated through. (If crawfish produce much liquid, continue to cook until it is almost completely reduced). Stir in tomato sauce and season with salt, black pepper, and creole seasoning to taste. Sprinkle the flour over the top and cook and stir for a minute or two. Gradually, stir in the half-and-half and cook until thickened, stirring frequently. (Can stir in a little Parmesan at the end, if desired). Serve crawfish sauce over the fried raviolis. Garnish with parsley or green onion, if desired.
