It would seem that what is difficult here, who does not know – how to cook crayfish? Sure. It's easy to cook them – I threw them into the water and took them out almost immediately. But this food is for those who are in a hurry and do not think about the taste. My culinary recipe is for gourmets!
Let's first prepare a spicy vegetable sauce from finely chopped vegetables. To do this, peel and cut into small cubes carrots with celery and onions. Heat 25 ml of oil in a saucepan, add vegetables, a sprig of thyme, and half a leaf of bay leaf. Mix all the ingredients with butter and, covered with a lid, cook for about 20 minutes on low heat until the vegetables are ready to soften.
Smear with melted butter crayfish, salt and pepper. Then we'll pour brandy on the crayfish and set it on fire, then pour dry white wine. Add stewed vegetables with water here and cook for 10 minutes. Now we put the crayfish on a dish, without letting them cool down. Sauce made from crayfish broth and two egg yolks with 40 g of butter, pour crayfish sauce. We serve immediately!
