Here is how you make Catfish Coubillion:

Roux can be bought at the store (jarred or as an instant mix) OR you can make your own. For a thick roux: Use the 6 Tbsp flour and 3 Tbsp oil in the recipe -- heat oil on medium, then sprinkle in flour a bit at a time while stirring briskly. It will be thick when all the flour is in, so beat in added flour thoroughly before adding more. When oil/flour are completely blended, turn up heat to Med-Hi. Let sit for about 1+ min (it should spread out) to heat up, then stir briskly until the mixture darkens to a dark tan (darken less for a thicker sauce). DO NOT STOP STIRRING. Remove from heat just before desired color; roux will continue to cook and darken slightly. If there are black specks in it, the roux is burned; start over. This whole process (from cold pan to roux) takes about 5 minutes when done with sufficient heat and quick mixing.===================================1---Begin heating 3 T premade roux or the roux above on med-low heat until it becomes smooth and somewhat liquid (2-3 min, if not hot already). Also, begin cooking the brown rice in steamer/cooker. Meanwhile, chop onion and green pepper.2----Mix onion and pepper into roux (stir in 3 Tbsp flour if using premade roux) and cook on med-low for 5-6 minutes or until tender.3---Add garlic powder, celery salt, cayenne, bay leaves, and crushed red pepper flakes (if desired). Stir in and cook about 30 seconds.4---Add tomato paste, stir in thoroughly, and cook about 2 mins.5---Add diced tomatoes, oregano, basil, thyme, lemon juice, worcestershire, and Tabasco sauce. Cook about 2 mins.6---Add fish/shrimp stock and water. Bring sauce to a gentle boil and simmer (uncovered) until sauce has thickened to about 3/4ths of full volume (20-25 min).7---Stir in rice. Cook 2 min. 8---Lay fish fillets on top of sauce. Cover and cook about 6 mins. Spoon sauce over top of fish. Add parsley over top if desired. Cook 3 more minutes. 9---Remove from heat.
