Caribbean Style Catfish
By: TOOLBELT DIVA
May 7, 2003
Caution: This recipe includes Almonds; anyone with a nut intolerance should eliminate this product entirely from the recipe. Farm-raised catfish is reported to be naturally low in overall fat and high in protein. Suggested serving with a plain green salad, (olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing); steamed corn on the cob. A lovely, thick-meat fish, enjoyed frequently by our household. A recipe brochure by DELTA PRIDE, picked up at the supermarket, added to my files and referenced frequently for quick cooking meals.

Did not care for this one much and think it may be because I have never poached fish and wasn't accustomed to it - also, I'm not a big fan of catfish. Stuffing was very good and seasonings were interesting!

Wonderful, just wonderful. Beside an european type of catfish I have used a white flesh fish called Pangasius (it has a wonderful nutty flavor). This recipe is so easy to make and to roll it up makes it a beeauty. But the best, it will keep all flavours in the fish roll ups, great. Instead of red pepper flakes I used fresh chilis to give it a very spicy touch. It works well. I love this flavourful carribean styled fish dishes. And this one is fantastic. If you make it for guests I would suggest to use different firm fleshed fish types. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.
