I thawed out some fish I thought was Gar and turns out it was not.I was ready to make the stuff so went ahead.Sorry that the  measurements are not exact as I just began tossing things in.First up was I boiled the fish for 7 minutes then simmer for 3 and added creole and some chopped Jalapenos and red bell peppers and celery.I figured it would season the fish but it did not.. made the house smell good though not like boiled fish.In a skillet I added some veggies I chopped in the food processor to very small.Red and yellow bell peppers from garden and red and green Jalapenos from garden.  yellow onion and a couple stalks of celery.Cooked it for about 7 minutes.In the microwave I have 2 potatoes getting nuked instead of boiling them.. boiling will also work.Remove peelings.Now everything is cooked the veggies and potatoes and fish.Potatoes got processed in food processor as did the fish.It all went into a large bowl and I added .Creole seasoning. about a table spoonDill weed.  a teaspoon and a half.Garlic powder. about 1/4 teaspoon.Black pepper. 1/4 teaspoon or so.yellow corn meal mix. 2 table spoons.2 eggs.All got mixed up and rolled into balls about 1/2 the size of a golf ball. like small meat ball size.Dry, wet, dry time. Then I rolled them in  flour seasoned with black pepper and a pinch of salt.Then into beaten eggs.Then into a mix 50/50 of bread crumbs and Panko crumbs.Those store bread crumbs you know very fine things.I then let them rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.Then deep fried in oil.Wife wants me to smash some today a little flatter and cook in a skillet.Man these are so good.Just one more way to cook  paddlefish.</blockquote>
