Seafood Casserole

Seafood Casserole

What is conch? Seafood is the staple of the Bahamian diet. Conch (pronounced "konk") is a large type of ocean mollusk that has firm, white, peach-fringed meat. Fresh, uncooked conch is delicious, the conch meat is scored with a knife, lime juice and spices are sprinkled over the meat. It can also be deep-fried (called "cracked conch"), steamed, added to soups, salads and stews or made into conch chowder and conch fritters.

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh conch, lobster, shrimp, or crawfish (grinded)
3 cups cream sauce (recipe follows)
1/2 cup grated cheese (American)
2 or 3 medium tomatoes
1 medium green pepper
(This casserole has the basic, remember the rule, a little of this, a little of that. Be creative, have fun, feel the food.)

Preparation:

Dissolve cheese in cream sauce. Place a layer of tomatoes, green pepper, and seafood in a baking dish. Cover with cream sauce and repeat.
