Mustard Fried Catfish

From Taste of Home. We do not deep fry anything in our house, but I am betting this will be great pan fried, too.

Ingredients

• 2⁄3 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1⁄3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

• 1⁄8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1⁄2 cup prepared mustard
• 4 (6 ounce)  catfish fillets
•  oil (for frying)
