Scampi

[pussyfoot]

I had scampi in a restaurant a few years ago and it was finished in a cream & brandy sauce if I remember right. I think it was called 'scampi menuire' or something like that. does anyone have any ideas of this recipe or anything similar.

Thank you.

not sure if this is right as it doesn't have cream, but it certainly looks good might give it a try myself!

Scampi Provencale was all the rage a few years back , when things are a la meuniere it usually means they are shallow fried I think.

A lot of people in France lightly fry the scampi in oil then add armagnac or whisky which is then lit before adding a few tbsp.of cr�me fraiche and salt and pepper and stirring. Very easy but lovely served with rice.
