Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine the garlic, turmeric, coriander, and a pinch of salt. Add a sufficient amount of water to create a marinade that is well mixed.

Marinate the Fish: Place the cleaned catfish into the marinade, ensuring that each piece is fully submerged. Align the fish to prevent curling during frying. Allow the fish to marinate for 20 minutes to infuse the flavors.
-
Frying: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium to high heat. Fry the catfish, taking care not to overcrowd the pan—typically, you can fry three pieces at a time. Cook each side for about 10 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
-
Drain and Serve: Once cooked, carefully remove the catfish from the oil and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy your crispy fried catfish!
