Shrimp & Grits

Or, “corngee.”

I haven’t posted about it yet, but I’ve been on a bit of a jook kick lately! This one is kind of silly but makes perfect sense: it’s a mash-up of Lowcountry shrimp and grits with greens and Vietnamese-style congee (cháo). I cooked the grits in a ton of gingery chicken stock to make them really nice and loose, seasoned with a handful of minced garlic chives, black pepper and a few squirts of fish sauce, and topped with porky gai lan and leftover buttery New Bae (Old Bay) prawns. Crystal hot sauce on top. 🍲 🌽 🦐#corngee #grits #jook #congee #cháo #shrimpandgrits #prawns #shrimp #lowcountry #vietnamesefood #cajun #greens #food52 #f52grams #foodstagram #buzzfeast #instafood #buzzfeedfood #polenta #homemade #homecooking #southernfood #vietcajun
