ok, here’s the shrimp pilaf… ingredients: 1 diced onion 1 diced green pepper 5 sections of a garlic clove, diced 1 small can of mushrooms 8 oz. of fresh mushrooms, peeled and sliced 3 grated carrots 1/2 bottle of Heinz catsup chili powder (to taste) curry powder (to taste) whipping cream (heavy) or half and half shrimp, peeled (about 1/2 pound per person) rice pilaf (Far East brand)-- 2 packages *yes, it makes a difference if you use a different catsup or rice pilaf… and the order you add the ingredients in also makes a difference. Sautee the onions, pepper and garlic in butter. Mix in mushrooms and sautee for at least five minutes. Mix in carrots, catsup, chili and curry powder. Keep sauteeing on medium heat (low heat for electric ranges) (you may add water if you think you need to-- I find that the mushrooms, especially, release water, so I very rarely wind up adding any)… Turn the heat even lower and let the mixture heat itself. I usually leave it on the stove like that for a good hour (stirring every so often). Pour in about 4 tablespoons of whipping cream (or half and half). Put in the shrimp, turn the heat up slightly. If the sauce seems too sour to you, pour in more whipping cream. Prepare the pilaf according to the package directions. Serve the shrimp mixture hot over hot pilaf. You can also serve garlic bread on the side. The actual cooking usually takes me a couple of hours, because I really like the combination of smells and I let it fill my house. I add the shrimp about the time I start making the pilaf-- you don’t want the shrimp to overcook, but that’s also why you don’t want to turn the heat on high. i hate electric stoves-- unfortunately, i’m stuck with one right now-- i find i really have to experiment even with all the dishes i’ve been making forever in order to get them right!
