Instructions to make Shrimp Etoufee:
- Remove heads from prawns.
- Add top of green pepper, peppercorns, 1 celery stalk chopped, 3 bay leaves, fat garlic clove chopped, half an onion chopped to a pot with the prawn heads and shells.
- Cover with water and simmer for 45 minutes. Strain through a sieve.
- Set aside 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.
- Dry prawns with paper towels. Put them on a plate and cover with remaining Cajun seasoning and half a teaspoon of salt.
- Heat a tablespoon butter in a cast iron pan on a medium heat.
- Cook shrimp in the hot butter without stirring for 1 minute; stir, and cook 1 minute more.
- Transfer to a bowl.
- Heat the oil in the cast iron pan over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the flour, making sure there are no clumps. Let this cook, stirring often, until it turns a very brown; this should take about 10 minutes or so.
- Add the celery, green pepper, and onion, mix well and cook this over medium heat for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes
- Add the shrimp stock slowly. The roux will absorb the stock and seize up at first, then it will loosen. Add additional stock as needed to make a sauce about the thickness of gravy.
- Add the Cajun seasoning and paprika and mix well. Add salt to taste, then mix in the shrimp. Cover the pot, turn the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 10 minutes.
- Serve with steamed rice, Tabasco and green onions.
