Yield: 4 servings
2 lg Catfish fillets

1 c Onions, chopped fine
1/2 c Celery, chopped fine
2 Garlic cloves, minced
1/3 c Butter
1/3 c Flour
1 ts Salt

In a deep skillet or dutch oven mix the butter and flour together
over low heat to form a roux (a thick, smooth, bubbly mixture). Add
the onions, celery and garlic and saute until tender. Add the
