Catfish Creation

Ingredients
Catfish fillets
Broccoli
Potatoes
Carrots
Thyme
Parsley
Mustard seeds (black)
Olive oil
Chilli powder
Gin
Lemon
Salt
Pepper
Portabella Mushroom
Milk

Method
Season the catfish in a stock of gin, lemon, chilli powder (just a little), salt and pepper. Let the mix set in the fridge for about an hour or so. In the meantime, cut up the broccoli into bite size pieces, the potatoes and carrots as well, and the mushroom. Boil the broccoli, carrots and potatoes. Once well cooked, remove and set aside the broccoli, seasoning it with salt and pepper. Place the boiled carrots and potatoes in a mixing bowl. Season with salt, pepper and add some milk, and mash the mixture.

Heat some olive oil in a pan, and some mustard seeds. Lightly fry the mushrooms for just a little while, then remove them and set aside. Next, lightly saute the catfish in the olive oil, mustard seed mix, with the seasoning sauce as well. Let the mixture simmer over medium fire for about 10-15 min.

Arrange the broccoli, mash, mushrooms and fish on the plates. Pour the sauce over the fish. Serve with White Zinfandel (chilled).
