Mississippi – Catfish Allison

May 15, 2019 by Grace 2 Comments

Catfish Allison and mashed potatoes with green onions

Catfish Allison hails from the great southern state of Mississippi. I first read about this dish when I was researching what to cook for our movie night.

Movie Night – O Brother, Where Are Thou?

Sunday evenings we sit down to watch a film. I love to cook a meal on these movie nights that has something to do with the film we are watching.  Usually either the setting of the movie, or food actually eaten or highlighted in the film can inspire the meal.

One recent film we watched was O Brother, Where Art Thou? It is a film by Joel and Ethan Coen, and stars George Clooney. Based on The Odyssey, by Homer, it turned out to be very funny and we enjoyed it greatly! The film is set in Mississippi, so that evening I decided to cook Catfish Allison for dinner.

The Crown Restaurant, Indianola Mississippi

Previously, I had assumed that all catfish consumed in Mississippi must be fried. Boy was I wrong! Catfish Allison, one of the most well known and loved dishes served at The Crown Restaurant, in Indianola, Mississippi, is poached, then topped with Allison Butter Sauce and then broiled. This sauce contains parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, tabasco, and green onions. Sounds incredibly good doesn’t it? 🙂

I opted to try a slight variation on this recipe, which calls for baking the catfish. This method of preparation worked well and I’m happy to say our family was very pleased with the dinner that night. 🙂

If you love catfish, you must try Catfish Allison! This dish is so easy to prepare, and absolutely delicious! I’m really looking forward to trying this again soon, and will opt for the poach then broil method the next time.

Serve with mashed potatoes or rice, and how about some green beans to go along with it?

Bring a taste of the Mississippi delta to your home soon with this awesome Catfish Allison dish!

Let’s throw some actual travel in from time to time, all with an emphasis on keeping your wallet full and happy as well. Let’s get cooking and let’s start exploring!!
