Cajun French: faire la cuisine (fair la kū-zeen) – cook meals
Sometimes preparing a meal is not about complicated recipes and fancy presentation; it is about quality ingredients fixed simply so the true taste comes out. That is what dinner last night was all about. We had catfish filets from Outlaw Katfish Kompany and fresh broccoli from Red Stick Farmers Market. It had been a long day, we were tired and not really into fancy cooking. The catfish from Outlaw is small, sweet and melts in your mouth and we were ready.
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!
