This soup is not smooth. Pretty simple.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
1 onion, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/8 teaspoon dry mustard
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons paprika
3 tablespoons flour
4 cups fish stock or 4 cups chicken stock
1 sprig thyme
1 bay leaf
8 ounces cooked shrimp
salt and pepper
chives
Directions:
1. Melt the butter and add the onion, celery, and garlic. Cook gently to soften.
2. Stir in the mustard, cayenne, paprika, and flour. Cook about 3 minutes over gentle heat, stirring occasionally.
3. Pour on stock gradually, stirring until well blended. Add the thyme and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer about 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
4. Add the shrimp and heat through for about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and top with chives before serving.
