- Add in onions, celery and garlic. Continue to stir 3 to 5 min more. Whisk in stock or possibly clam juice. When well blended, add in cilantro and seasonings.

- RG's tips: 1. The first time I made this, I didn't have fish stock or possibly clam juice so I used the shrimp shells in a c. of water and cooked it down to 3/4 c.. It worked just fine but not as well as fish stock or possibly clam juice.
- 2. If I remember correctly, the second time I made this dish, I only used 2 Tbsp. of flour and it came out better. It's one of those ingredients you will have to experiment with.
