1/2 cup prepared yellow mustard
1/2 cup coarse grain mustard
1 egg white, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
1 1/2 lbs catfish fillets, cut into bite-size strips
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal

In a large bowl, stir together the mustard, egg white, and Tabasco sauce.
Add the fish and toss to coat well.
Cover and marinate for 1 hour.
In a shallow dish, mix together the cornmeal, flour, salt, and pepper.
Pour the oil into a heavy 3-quart saucepan or deep-fryer, filling it to no more than one-third full, and heat over medium heat to 350 degrees.
Dredge the fish in the cornmeal mixture and shake off excess.
Carefully add the fish to the oil, a few pieces at a time.
Cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Drain on paper towels.
