Shrimp Stock:
Shells from 2 lbs. shrimp, 6 cups water, 1 onion (halved), 1 head garlic (halved), 2 bay leaves.

Add 1 tablespoon of oil into a pot and add the shells. Cook until the shells turn orange about 3-5 minutes. Slowly add the water, onion, garlic and bay leaves. Let this come to a boil, lower the heat and cover. Cook for 30-45 minutes. Strain the stock and discard everything else. You should end up with roughly 4 cups of stock


Directions:
Season the shrimp with about 1 tablespoon of the Cajun seasoning, toss and set aside. Into a heavy bottomed skillet, melt the butter and sprinkle in the flour. Cook on low heat and continuously stir using a wooden spoon until the flour has completely absorbed. Continue cooking and stir every 30 seconds or so until it reaches a deep tan color about 8-12 minutes, do not turn your heat up to expedite the process or it will burn and you will have to start over.

Add the diced bell pepper, celery and onion and fold into the roux cook for about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and andouille sausage if using and cook for a few more minutes. Add roughly 2 cups of the shrimp stock and stir, add more if needed. Sprinkle in the remaining Cajun seasoning and shrimp boil if using. Let this cook for at least 30 minutes then add the shrimp. Depending on the size of the shrimp you will need to cook this for another 8-10 minutes. Taste for seasoning and serve with rice and garnish of your choice.
