Ingredients:

1 pound catfish fillets

1 medium onion, chopped

1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

1 tablespoon Mayonaise

1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning

2 1/2 cups coarsely crushed buttery crackers

1 egg

1 cup vegetable oil (for frying)


Directions:

Place catfish in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork. Drain off water, and mash up the fish. Stir in the onion, mustard, mayonnaise, Old Bay, cracker crumbs and egg. Mix until evenly blended.

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Form the fish mixture into patties, and fry in the hot oil. Drain on paper towels before serving
