[quote=Anonymous]These are better at home. Easy to make and restaurants always short you on the shrimp. Buy a $10 bag of frozen gulf shrimp and a box of grits and make your own. I don't use a recipe, but this is basically it. Cook 1 c grits to 4 c water with salt to taste. Finish with 1/4 c grated sharp cheddar, 1 chopped scallion, splash of tabasco, pinch cayenne, and black pepper. Sometimes I add a spoonful of cream cheese or a little yogurt and use less cheddar. Thaw and shell shrimp. Cook shells with 3/4 cup water for 20 min and let cool and strain liquid. (Or buy shelled shrimp and sub clam juice or extra white wine). Chop 1/2 onion, 1/2 sliced green pepper, 1/2 box sliced mushrooms in olive oil for 6-7 min. Add shrimp and stock plus 1/4 c white wine. Cook 3 min. Thicken with 1 tab cornstarch mixed with 1 1/2 tab water), cook 2 min more. Taste shrimp for doneness and salt to taste. [/quote]
