deep fried fish
First, I hope this is not a repeat post, and I hope it's in the right place.
Tonight, for the third time, I am making deep-fried fish. This is something I normally do with catfish breaded in a cornmeal/cornstarch mixture. My kids love it, but my husband can't stand it, so we usually have it when he's out of town.
Just for the heck of it, I decided to try deep-frying a few pieces with no cornmeal, a couple of months ago when I first started this LC diet. Turns out, it comes out with a crispy crust which is nearly indistinguishable, to me, from the cornmeal. Even my kids don't care if the cornmeal is missing, which is near sacrilege where I hail from.
I live in MI, now, and there is a locally-made concoction called Clancy's Fancy. It's a sweet hot sauce, has molasses in it, so it probably has some carbs. About 1 tsp of this in 1/3 cup of mayonnaise makes an excellent dipping sauce for breadless deep-fried fish.
