Man, it went down good tonight with some kind of home made seafood dinner. Sure was an easy night. The wife enjoyed her leftover Alfredo dinner from last night. Me, enjoying the spoils of a seafood buying expedition, I will be having Shrimp Creole over crispy Idaho French fries. Messy, but good some eats. Great home made lemonade too!! ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/05/full-22567-419398-img_7048.jpeg)
Beer and whiskey, 'cause you can't drink bacon!!

BLANK!!! You CAN NOT do that man. Shrimp Creole over fries? Blasphemy. Rice man, rice! (Looks good though. ![smile smile](/forum/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) )

Care to share your shrimp creole recipe ?
If you have not tried gumbo over fries , you are missing out.

* 4 tablespoons un-salted butter * 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour * 1 1⁄2cups sweet onion, chopped in cubes * 2 green onions, chopped fine, bases in stew and tops for garnish * 1 bell pepper, chopped fine * 1 celery, chopped fine * 1 carrot, chopped fine * 2 cloves fresh garlic, chopped and minced (can use 1 tsp. prepared minced garlic) * 2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes or even Rotel, if desired for more spicy taste * 1 small can of tomato paste * 3 tablespoons chopped parsley for garnish * 2 bay leaves (remove prior to serving) * 1⁄4 teaspoon thyme * 2 Tsp. Fremin’s Magic Dust, or Tony Chachere’s Creole seasoning * 1/4 teaspoon salt * 1/2 teaspoon pepper * 2-3 cups hot water (use to thin as necessary)
* Melt butter in stock pot or dutch oven, then add flour to make roux, and stir until brown. * Add Trinity (all vegetables) and saute until soft (approx. 4-6 minutes). * Add diced tomatoes and tomato paste, and cook for 15 minutes. * Add parsley, bay leaves, thyme and gradually stir in hot water, until reaching desired thickness. * Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
Makes quite a bit, so I separate into several Tupperwares and freeze for future use
