I found this recipe in one of my Mother's old cookbooks. The 7-up soda gives it a more sweet flavor than the traditional recipe.
Ingredients:
1 cup celery, chopped
1 cup green onion, chopped
1 cup green pepper, chopped (optional)
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup flour
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
3 bay leaves
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon thyme
1 1/2 cups 7-up soda (to taste)
2 packages baby shrimp
Directions:
1. In a 12-inch skillet, brown garlic and green onion in oil, until light brown.
2. Add flour, tomato sauce and 7-up until mixture is bubbly.
3. Mix well.
4. Add shrimp, celery and green pepper and remaining ingredients.
5. Cook on low fire about 15 minutes.
6. Serve over rice.
