Leftover Trout/Catfish for Denise - cjs - 06-08-2014 Ran across this sauce recipe yesterday and thought of you and your l/o fish. Denise, the tacos I made with the leftovers were just wonderful. Just an idea for you. SPICY RUM SAUCE 05/10/05 01:19 PM (66.174.76.205) Edit Reply Chef Joseph Carey, author of Creole Nouvelle, Contemporary Creole Cookery has graciously given permission for me to post a recipe from his book, that is just wonderful! SPICY RUM SAUCE 1 med. red bell pepper, diced 1 med. yellow onion, diced 1 or 2 (I used 3) Jalapeno or Serrano peppers, minced 2 tsp. garlic minced 2 c. fresh pineapple, diced 3/4 c. dark rum 3/4 c. dark brown sugar 1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar In a non-reactive pan bring all ingredients to a boil. Reduce to a simmer & cook for about 15 min. Sauce should have thickened and all solids should be soft. This was served over his Pecan Encrusted Catfish Filets and was a great combination. And then...I always make enough catfish to have l/os, so the next night, I simmered the Rum sauce till it was almost dry, added chunked up catfish and tossed together (really gently) and served them in fried corn tortillas w/a little hot sauce to top it all off. This sauce could be used on ice cream, any kind of fish, probably even a toasted muffin - if I had some left, I'd try this - it's that good! (Oh, and they probably would have been very good with the Chile Hush Puppies he recommended serving with the catfish - that will be next time.) ---------------- Shoot, I've promised I won't buy any fish/meat until the freezers are empty!!!
