re: crawfish pie

I have this one posted in the Recipe Thread. It works very well.

Crawfish Pie

Ingredients:

1 lb good crawfish tails
1 onion, diced
2 ribs celery, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1 T minced garlic
1 cup heavy cream
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 stck butter
1/4 cup each minced green onion and flat leaf parsley
Salt, red and black pepper to taste
1 deep dish crust
1 flat crust for the top


Method

Melt the butter and sauté the trinity over medium heat until the onions are clear. Add the cream, green onions and garlic. Bring up to a simmer. Add the crawfish and bread crumbs, cut the heat, and mix well. Season to taste with salt, black and red pepper. Temper the egg with 2 T of the mixture and then add to the mix with the parsley.

Add to the deep dish crust and cover with the second flat crust.
Bake at 375 for 25 to 30 minutes until golden. You can brush the top with a beaten egg white before baking if you wish.

If you want a measurement on the seasonings, start with 1 t of salt and 1/2 t each on the peppers. Adjust to your taste. Easy and good.
