Excellent creamy Creole taste, I used Chorizo Sausage as well - it adds that bit of spice and it releases that great mexican sausage flavor into the sauce. I used a bit more sausage than the 4 ounces specified in the recipe. I took the sausage out of the casings, however, I didn't dice them - I gave them a rough chop and then broke them into smaller pieces with the wooden spatula while they were browning. I used extra large shrimp - since the family LOVES shrimp. The butter added at the end was perfect! The rice cakes did not form to the patty shape easily with my hands - so I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup to prep them into the pan. It all worked in the end. I think the nest time I will just add the whole rice cake mix into a large oiled pan and fry it as one piece then portion it to each plate. The cakes were very good and a nice addition. I also think the pecans were the co-star - both in the cakes and as a sprinkled topping - Simply awesome.

This recipe is sinfully delicious....YUM! I struggled to find some of the ingredients in my local store but it turned out amazing! I was unable to find fish or shrimp stock so I used Swanson's Seafood Flavor Boost Packets. The flavor was incredible. I was also unable to find tasso so I used a spicy sausage and it worked really well with the dish. Incredible dish!

I searched for this recipe after a vacation to New Orleans. We had a very similar dish while there and we fell in love! I have made this recepie repeatedly for family and friends, with some variations. I use chorizo instead of tasso, and I always serve over a jasmine or white rice. Just like being back in NOLA!

Made this in christmas for my family what a huge hit, got some delicious jumbo shrimp to make it with. I can see doing this hearty dish again. Only thing is I couldnt find the tasso sausage so I used a chorizo with brandy mixed in it instead. I think it made it even better

This recipe is fantastic -- I would definitely pay money in a restaurant for it. I could not find tasso ham where I live but the person at the deli counter suggested capacola. It worked beautifully. I accidentally forgot the yellow onions but from reading other reviews it sounded like the flavor would have been too strong with them anyway. You've got to try it!

Made it more than once. Rice cakes were a little hard, but decided the second time to put over plain rice. What a hit, used smoked garlic sausage and hum, hum good.

I fixed this entree for my wife, and she loved it. I had some let overs and gave some to my floks and they just fell in love with. So, this was an excellent meal. I highly recommend it!
