STUFFED EGGPLANT PIROGUE
"A pirogue is a small, flat-bottomed boat of a design associated particularly with West African fishermen and the Cajuns of the Louisiana marsh." This recipe sounded so delicious but it seemed scary to me. I figured I'd bite the bullet and make it anyway! This is an Emeril Lagasse recipe :) Of course it uses Essence seasoning or other Creole seasoning, there are many recipes on zaar that can be used. I had help with this, the Chef here allowed me to think that I did all the work, nice guy! Recipe courtesy of the FoodNetwork.com The recipe claimed 30 min prep it was more like 45 min.

- Ingredients
2 large eggplants, peeled |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 cups fine dry breadcrumbs |
3 tablespoons essence seasoning or 3 tablespoons other creole seasoning, recipe follows |
1 teaspoon essence seasoning or 1 teaspoon other creole seasoning, recipe follows |
2 eggs |
2 1/3 cups milk |
5 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper |
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leave |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese (may substitute other cheeses here, such as Gruyere or Brie) |
1 bay leaf |
vegetable oil, for frying |
3/4 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined |
3/4 lb lump crabmeat, picked over for shells and cartilage |
1/4 cup dry white wine |
1/3 cup finely chopped green onion |
1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese |
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley |
Steps:
- Cut each eggplant into thirds lengthwise. Cut a thin flat slice off the curved side so that the eggplant pieces lay level, like little boats. Using a paring knife and spoon or melon baller, scoop out the flesh from the inside of the eggplant, leaving a 1/4-inch shell.
- Set aside, reserve removed pulp for another purpose or discard.
- In a shallow bowl combine 1 cup of the flour with 1 tablespoon of the Essence.
- In a second shallow bowl combine the bread crumbs with 1 tablespoon of Essence.
- In a third bowl combine the eggs with 1 cup of the milk and 1 teaspoon of Essence.
- Season the eggplant pirogues with 2 teaspoons of the Essence.
- Working 1 at a time, dredge the eggplant pirogues in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess, then in the egg wash, and finally in the seasoned bread crumbs.
- Place eggplant pieces on a wire rack and set aside while you prepare the seafood sauce.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of the seasoned breadcrumbs and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium high heat.
- Add the onions, red bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of Essence, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook until the onions are soft, about 4 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add the remaining 4 teaspoons of flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
- Add the remaining 1 1/3 cups of milk, whisking continuously, and bring the sauce to a boil.
- Add the cream, return sauce to a boil, and cook until sauce is thickened and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and add the cheese, stirring until melted.
- Add the bay leaf and set aside, covered.
- In a large skillet melt 3 tablespoons of the remaining butter and, when hot, add the shrimp and cook until the shrimp are pink, about 1 minute.
- Add the crabmeat, 1/2 teaspoon of Essence and 1/4 teaspoon salt, wine and green onions and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally but being careful not to break up the crabmeat.
- Add the reserved cheese sauce and stir well to combine.
- Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly to avoid scorching the bottom of the pan.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
- In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat several inches of oil to 350ºF.
- Fry the eggplants in the hot oil until golden brown, turning occasionally, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Drain on paper-lined baking sheet.
- Lay the fried eggplant boats on a baking sheet and spoon about 3/4 cup of the hot seafood filling onto the top of each.
- In a small bowl combine the grated Parmesan with the 1/4 cup of reserved seasoned bread crumbs.
- Divide the cheese-crumb mixture evenly among the tops of the filled eggplant pirogues and broil for 2 to 3 minutes, or until crumbs are lightly browned.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve at once.
