     Title: Cream Puffs w/Curried Shrimp
Categories: Pastry, Seafood, Dairy, Curry, Relish
     Yield: 24 filled cream puffs

   3/4 lb Fresh shrimp, shelled,
          - deveined
     1 tb Butter
     3 tb Fine chopped onion
     1 tb Curry powder
     1 c  Heavy cream
     3 tb Finely chopped chutney
          Salt & fresh ground pepper

MMMMM-----------------------CREAM PUFFS------------------------------
     8 tb Butter; more to grease pan
     1 c  Flour; more to flour the pan
     1 c  Water
          Salt
     4 lg Eggs

 MAKE THE CREAM PUFFS: Set oven @ 425-|F/218-|C.

 Lightly, but thoroughly, butter a jellyroll pan.
 Sprinkle the pan with flour and shake it around until
 well coated. Shake and tap out excess flour.

 Add the water to a saucepan and add the eight
 tablespoons of butter and salt to taste. Bring to the
 boil and add the flour, all at once, stirring vigorously
 and thoroughly in a circular fashion until a ball is
 formed and the mixture cleans the sides of the saucepan.

 Add one egg, beating thoroughly and rapidly with the
 spoon until it is well blended with the mixture. Add
 another egg, beat and so on. When all the eggs are
 added, fit a pastry bag with a round-tipped, number 6
 pastry tube. Spoon the mixture into the bag. Holding the
 pastry bag straight up with the tip close to the floured
 surface of the pan, squeeze the bag to make mounds of
 pastry at intervals all over the pan. There should be
 about 24 mounds.

 The mounds may have pointed tips on top. To flatten
 these, wet a clean tea towel and squeeze it well. Open
 it up, fold it over in thirds. Hold it stretched
 directly over the mounds, quickly patting down just
 enough to rid the mounds of the pointed tips. Do not
 squash the mounds.

 Place the pan in the oven and bake 30 minutes or until
 the cream puffs are golden brown and cooked throughout.
 Remove and let cool.

 MAKE THE SHRIMP: Cut the shrimp into half-inch or
 slightly smaller pieces. There should be about one and
 one-quarter cups. Set aside.

 Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the onion. Cook,
 stirring, until wilted. Add the curry powder and stir to
 blend.

 Add the cream and chutney and cook down to about half a
 cup. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the shrimp and
 cook, stirring, one or two minutes or until the shrimp
 lose their raw look throughout.

 Slice off the tops of all the cream puffs. Spoon an
 equal portion of the mixture into each cream-puff
 bottom. Replace the tops and serve.
