Fish Fry and Homemade Cole Slaw

My husband was finally able to transfer my files from the old laptop to this laptop that I'm using. I found this photo of a fish fry I made a few weeks ago.

This was a real hit especially the homemade coleslaw. Without further ado, let's get on with the cooking!

For the Fish Fry

fish fillet - I think I used tilapia for this recipe but use a firmer fish

2 cups corn meal

2 cups flour

2 beaten eggs

2T mustard

salt and pepper

garlic powder

onion powder

Spanish paprika

You can also use hot sauce but I skipped it so that my son can eat this

Let's do this!

Rinse the fish and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat some oil in a large pan. Mix the beaten eggs and mustard and hot sauce (if using) in a bowl. In another bowl, mix the corn meal, flour, garlic powder, onion powder and Spanish paprika. Dip the fish in the egg mixture then dredge in the corn meal mixture. Fry until golden brown. 

For the homemade cole slaw

Shredded cabbage

shredded carrots

thinly sliced onions

mayonnaise

sugar

white vinegar

1T mustard

salt and pepper

Mix the cabbage, carrots and onions in a big bowl. In another bowl, mix the mayo, sugar, white vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper together. Add to the vegetables and mix well. Chill before serving.
