P.s. I also knew I was going to make this recipe before I bought my catfish and I used your advice to ask the fish butcher to clean it up. I have made it 3x. 2 x with basmati or jasmine rice and once w couscous..Thank you!!!
Love this dish , my mom made this for us frequently ! So delicious over rice with southern potato salad. ! Process to remove skin is entirely different ! Thank you !
Came out very well and looks delicious. The only thing i'd change is tomato paste. For some reason i hate the taste. I dont even use it in any of my tomatoe base stews. I dont even use it in Jollof rice, i just use very red bell pepper. God Bless.
I know what you mean Ola. I know some people who don’t use it as well. I also use a minimal amount just to add a bit more texture to the stew...as long as the stew is tasty who cares anyways 🤷♀️.
@@cheflolaskitchen omw! It's so nice eeee, eating and typing and I just stained my phone with the Pepe. Lol. Thanks sis. But I couldn't get paprika here at all so it wasn't added.
Oh wowww! Ms.Lola..your dish looks so delicious...🔥😋 I want a bowl of it so bad..🤤 I want to try this..can I use halibut or another type of fish? I dont eat catfish. Thank you beautiful lady Lola.🔥.peace, love and blessings..🖤
Thank you for the video💕 I am heading to the kitchen to prepare this in a similar way for dinner. It's my first time to try to taste catfish 😳😳😳 ,a small voice is however advising me in whispers not to 🤔🤔🤔.
i love your video, i'm curious as to why you boiled the fish first before you add it to the stew? i normally add it to the stew when the stew starts to cook but i notice it gets watery. scared to do your style cos then the catfish will be too soft and scatter all over but yours stayed intact. what step am i missing? would appreciate a prompt reply cos my family wants this for thanksgiving and i want to get really prepared.
Hi Lamide, I really did not boil the fish. I only put them in hot water to make them a bit firm. That helps to prevent the fish from scattering inside the stew. Also, once you put the fish inside the stew, it's advisable not to stir it vigorously. I hope this helps?

Was that actual catfish, or some other fish that is familiarly known as "catfish?" The recipe looks great, and you make it so well. I will try this very soon.
Pls help me, the last time I tried catfish made at home even tho it was seasoned properly for 2hours even with pepper and other spices, I had this fishy smell that I wanted to throw up. I want to make this stew ………will the boiling take that smell away or any technique???

This is amazing, I’m cooking this today only difference is I marinate my fish overnight after washing it, it helps the fish taste better.

Chef Lola's Kitchen yes. I tried your procedure and it worked. The carfish stayed intact n not one of them scattered. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I do this too, but omit the tomatoes 🍅😅
Looks yummy, where did you get the blender from?
It’s a Ninja blender. Stores like Walmart and Target carries it. You can also find it on Amazon or ebay.
Use riced cauliflower for a great keto recipe.
“Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl

She would merengue and do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
Across the crowded floor, they worked from eight til four
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more…..?”
Can I make this with any fish
