Shrimp Curry

1 stick butter

2 cups half & half

Extra half and half to get the right texture

Salt to taste

Vegetable Bowl

1 onion, chopped

2 ribs celery, chopped

Seasoning Bowl

3 Tbsp flour

3Tbsp, curry powder

Shrimp

2 lb. shrimp, peeled and cut in thirds

1 Tbsp. Creole seasoning

3 Tbsp vegetable oil

Set up the Vegetable Bowl and the Seasoning Bowl.  Heat the butter in a large skillet over low heat. Add the Vegetable Bowl and sauté until onions are golden (about 10 minutes).  Add the Seasoning Bowl and stir for another 5 minutes.  Add the half & half a cup at a time, stirring after each addition to avoid any lumps (add more half & half to get the right thickness). Salt to taste (very important).  Stir in the shrimp prepared as follows.  

Shrimp.  Combine the shrimp and Creole seasoning in a bowl and toss with your hands until the shrimp is evenly coated with the seasoning.  Heat the oil in a large skillet.  Add the shrimp and sauté until just cooked. Add the shrimp to the curry and serve over rice.

Our comments: Create a variation of Lobster Newberg for a change (Seasonings Bowl: 1T curry, 1T paprika, 1T basil and 3T flour.  1/3 cup sherry and shrimp stock to set thickness instead of half and half)
