INSTRUCTIONS
In Dutch oven or large heavy pot, melt butter and cook onion, green pepper,
celery and garlic until soft, about 5 minutes. Add salt, TABASCO sauce and
crawfish fat, and cook, uncovered, over medium-low heat 30 minutes,
stirring occasionally. Add crawfish tails, lemon juice and parsley. Cook
another 10 to 15 minutes. Just before serving, add chopped green onion. For
best flavor, prepare dish the day before. Remove from refrigerator an hour
before serving, and reheat just until hot to avoid overcooking crawfish.
Serve over steamed white rice.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.

NOTES : If you cannot purchase crawfish fat separately, you can extract it
from crawfish by running sealed package of tails under hot water to make
fat more liquid. Cut open package and empty into colander with bowl
underneath to catch fat that runs off.
