here's how i make my stuffing,
4 mirlitons
1 onion
5 toes of garlic
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup celery and green pepper- you vary the amounts of this according to your taste
olive oil
1 cup italian bread crumbs
1 cup freshly grated romano cheese
1 lb. fresh shrimp cut into pieces
oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, tony chacheries or whatever you use as a flavor aid. ie salt and pepper
----------------------------------------
boil mirlitons whole until tender not mushy
peel and if it has one, remove the seed in the center and cube
keep the liquid you boiled the mirlitons in your gonna need it later
in a large pan saute all the vegetables in olive oil or butter until they get limp, add the shrimp and cook until the shrimp turn pink that usually
takes about one minute
add cubed mirlitons and season with the ingrediants i listed above.
add bread crumbs about 3/4 cup
add 3/4 cup grated romano cheese stir well
add liquid from the mirliton stock to loosen
place in casserole dish
sprinkle top with 1/4 cup bread crumbs and 1/4 cup cheese
