This recipe sounds very good, but it is not a true cajun etoufee. A true recipe is butter, crawfish fat, onions, celery, bell pepper, a little flour, seasonings, some water to loosen it and crawfish. Some here in Lafayette, LA, have tweeked the recipe to add their own takes on it and most all are very good, including those that add cream of mushroom soup. My favorite is the purist recipe that I mentioned. Crawfish fat is hard to come by, so the butter helps with that. Over cooking once the crawfish is added, makes the crawfish tough and not pleasant to eat. Always add them last.

This is the best thing I have ever eaten! I am not kidding! I can't wait to make it again! I didn't use Crawfish because it wasn't available so I substituted Shrimp. Absolutely delicious! My husband managed to steal a serving to take to work for lunch the next day and shared a taste with some friends. They all went crazy...agreeing that it was the best thing they had ever tasted! This is what I call a true 5 star recipe Paula! Thanks for sharing!

Sure it is delicious - it has bacon, an entire stick of butter, and a large shot of cream. Not exactly difficult to make salt and fat taste good. Only issue is that regular consumption typically leads to medical problems. If you have good seafood for your etouffee, I prefer not to use the cream and bacon as they tend to overpower and mask the more subtle flavors.

i've tried several etouffee recipes and this one is hands down the best that i've found.
pretty much followed the instructions to a T. the only change i made was to kick it up a notch by adding extra red pepper and also I mixed in some fresh shrimp along with the crawfish tails for good measure.
heart-breakingly good!

This recipe reminds me of an Etouffee that I had at a favorite restaurant. Very tasty. I use chicken broth in place of clam juice. I have shared this recipe with many others and they all think it's the best!

albright1: that recipe was on her episode "The Big Easy" and it was called 'shrimp stuffed mirliton'. You can find it by typing either the episode name or recipe name into the search box at the top of the screen.

Just watching this on April 6th and I can't wait to try this. It just looks wonderful!
To the ones who make mean comments, if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Paula and her family are great!!!
