Here you will find good Cajun eating and warm family closeness. I dedicate this corner of the web to Pop and Mom Burleigh... who are an inspiration to us all; not just in cooking, but in bringing out the real meaning of family. They have passed on to us throughout the years wonderful recipes and good Cajun eating as well as unconditional Christian love and memories. Pop and Mom are the backbone of the Burleigh family and God has truly blessed us with the most wonderful parents in the whole world! They have allowed me to share their recipes to bless others. I pray you will be blessed by their recipes as we have been and still are. May God richly bless you! |

60% potatoes 40% fish onion garlic or garlic powder salt black pepper red pepper egg and milk paprika cooking oil Boil potatoes until 80% cooked. Use ground fish or shredded garfish, catfish, or boneless. Chop onions fine. Mash potatoes and mix fish and potatoes together. Add beaten up egg, salt, pepper, paprika, a little milk with egg, and mix altogether. Can sprinkle a little bread crumbs or flour to make hold together. Heat oil at about 325 degrees. When making patties or croquets, use a bowl of flour on the side to powder hands. This keeps patties from sticking. Drop in hot oil. When they float or get golden brown, remove from heat and place on paper towel or brown paper. |

Well I hope you have enjoyed your visit so far. As I was browsing through Pop and Mom's kitchen, I have discovered that there are many recipes to share. On this page so far, I have included the family favorite "seafood" recipes. Since I have so many more recipes to share, I have decided to categorize them a little and put the rest on other pages. Below you will find the categories with links to the rest of Pop and Mom's family favorites. Just click on the links and you will be taken to more of the Burleigh Family's favorites from Pop and Mom. Since you have made it this far, I thought before I added the links, that I'd share a little surprise with you and introduce you to Pop and Mom. Once you meet them, you may continue on and there you will find the rest of the recipe links to their good ole' fashion Cajun cookin'! |
