Catawba Island Perch Fry

Catawba Island Perch Fry
A Labor Day Tradition!
Difficulty: Easy


Ingredients
1 lb. perch fillet, dressed, (bones removed)
2 cups flour
2 cups corn flake crumbs
2 eggs
salt
pepper
oil for frying
Directions
Put enough oil in a fryer or Dutch oven to accommodate the fish.  Heat on medium heat.  Crack 2 eggs in a shallow bowl and whisk, place flour in a separate shallow bowl as well as the corn flake crumbs; creating an assembly line.  Once you make sure there are no bones in the fillets, salt and pepper the fillets then dredge each in flour on all sides, then into the egg mixture and finally the corn flake crumbs.  Once the fish are all coated, fry small amounts of fillet, not to overcrowd in the oil.  Cook both sides for about 3 minutes until fully cooked and nice and golden.  Place fried fish on a sheet pan lined with paper towels, to absorb the excess oil.
Serve hot just as fried fillet or in a sandwich.
Serves 4-6

Make A Perfect Sandwich!
