Another one of those recipes that
seems like more work than it's worth....
First you have to catch
them.That's
usually the hardest part of any meal on the marsh,
unless you bring it from home in a cooler. Catch a
lot of them, they're small.
Here's
what you do with them once you have them:
1.Cut
off the head and fins and gut it.
2.Boil
it. After boiling the skin will peel off.
3.Cook
it up in a stew with salt, pepper and curry powder. The
curry powder was stressed.Don't
forget the curry powder.
Apparently they taste like crap unless
you put in enough curry powder to kill the taste. I've
never been ambitious enough to try them.
Someone else gave me another recipe
for armored catfish that sounds much better.
1. Lay the
fish on a hot grill and cook it for a short time,
turning it once.
2. Peel the
skin off
3. Lift the
filet off each side.
Supposedly, they taste like lobster
when prepared this way. I haven't tried it myself,
but it sounds better than the curry recipe.
