My recipe from my Cajun buddy is a little different than than most because of the spices used.

These are really good and are pretty spicy.

LOUISIANA SHRIMP FRITTERS

4 cups raw shrimp

2-3 large potatoes sectioned

3/4 onion quartered

1/2 bell pepper julienned

Green onions chopped to taste

1/2 cup parsley chopped

1 egg beaten

3 tbsp flour

1 stick butter

1-2 tsp Tabasco

Salt, pepper, red pepper, garlic powder.

Grind shrimp, potatoes, onions, and bell pepper. Add green onions, parsley egg and flour. Mix well. Drop by teaspoon full into grease at 350 F. Fry until golden brown

Melt butter and add Tabasco in another pot. When fritters are done, place them in the pot with butter and Tabasco. Let simmer until ready to eat.

These are really good with a fresh green salad and a good cold beer.
