Instructions to make Shrimp Etoufee:

- Cover with water and simmer for 45 minutes. Strain through a sieve.
- Set aside 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.
- Dry prawns with paper towels. Put them on a plate and cover with remaining Cajun seasoning and half a teaspoon of salt.
- Heat a tablespoon butter in a cast iron pan on a medium heat.
- Cook shrimp in the hot butter without stirring for 1 minute; stir, and cook 1 minute more.
- Transfer to a bowl.
- Heat the oil in the cast iron pan over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the flour, making sure there are no clumps. Let this cook, stirring often, until it turns a very brown; this should take about 10 minutes or so.
- Add the celery, green pepper, and onion, mix well and cook this over medium heat for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes
