Comment préparer Authentic Spicy Shrimp Creole

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil over medium heat. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, stirring constantly with a whisk to prevent lumps. This is your roux.
Continue stirring the roux constantly until it reaches a deep brown color, similar to a paper bag. This will take approximately 15-20 minutes. Do not rush this step!
Add 1 chopped bell pepper (any color), 4 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 cup chopped green onions, and 1-2 tablespoons Tabasco sauce (adjust to your spice preference). Stir to combine.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in 1 (6 ounce) can of tomato paste and 2 cups of water. Mix well to ensure no lumps remain and create a smooth sauce.
Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Uncover the pot and continue to simmer until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. This may take an additional 5-10 minutes.
Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1-2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning, if desired.
Serve hot over 2 cups of cooked white rice. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and serve with crusty French bread for dipping.
