Shrimp Creole



2 TBS all purpose flour
4 TBS oil
1 c onions, finely chopped
1 c celery, chopped
salt to taste
pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
1 1/2 pound raw, cleaned shrimp
1 can tomato sauce
1 can Rotel
1 TBS sugar
1 c green onions, chopped
4 c water

Make a roux with flour and oil.  Add onions and celery; wither.  Add tomate sauce, Rotel and green onions.  Add water and simmer.  Put all in blender and mix.  Return to heat.  Add shrimp; cook 15 minutes.  Cover and let stand.  Serve over rice.

Note from Melanie: This picture might not be an accurate representation just because I prefer less liquid in my servings but there was plenty.  Also, I didn't feel like getting the blender or food processor out so I left the chunks in mine.

Note from Melanie: I didn't roll them out but just formed them into balls. Let rise  then baked at 400 for about 10 minutes, then another few minutes at 350 and then turned the oven off and let them sit to make sure they were done.
