SOUTHERN FRIED CATFISH WITH HUSH PUPPIES
Southern hospitality just wouldn't be the same with this delicious dish. Every southern woman knows how to fry up a "mess" of good catfish and though there are several recipes for the batter it all boils down to deep frying those babies a deep golden brown. And you can't have fried catfish with the hush puppies to go with it....
