What do you do with crawfish boil leftovers?

Had a nice boil yesterday (fyi Harbor Seafood in Kenner has nice ones for $1.40 a pound)

Had about 2 pounds of tails left, a few potatoes, some onions, sausage and garlic.

I took the garlic and pureed it into a stick of garlic and sauteed that. sliced some of the potatoes, then drizzled half of the garlic butter mixture in a bowl with some redfish magic, and a little bit of flour. Tossed them and then placed on a baking sheet, and baked for 30 minutes at 350.

Then took the rest of the garlic butter, and added the onions that I diced up, and a bell pepper from the fridge. after cooking down the veggies, I added a little bit of cubed sausage and some tasso, and all the crawfish (did this in a large wok). Then added a stick of butter.

I cooked this until the butter was melted, then added some flour and stirred this up. Then processed two triangles of parmesan (10oz) into small shavings, and added that to the pot.
After the cheese was melted, I added a pint of cream and a cup of milk.

Stirred until it came to a soft boil then reduced heat to simmer for 10 minutes.


In another por I boiled some heads, then strained them, then kept that water boiling down for two hours, then boiled a pound of fettuccine in it. After that was done, tossed the fettuccine in the sauce.

Served with the potatoes. Made a very good 'take home dish' after the crawfish boil.

Was very good.

I know people use the tail meat, what do you normally do with it?
