school lunch shrimp pooppers
 

My mom has been looking for the recipe for those school lunch shrimp
poppers forever. Is there a recipe? I've googled it, but all that
comes up are the ones with bacon and jalopenos, not the ones with the
crumbly coating that they serve at school lunches. Does anyone know
how to make those?

Try searching for popcorn shrimp. Crumbly coating
suggests cornmeal or perhaps panko.

I haven't had a school lunch in more than 30 years,
and we sure as heck never had shrimp. A good day
was when the cafeteria ladies used some of the
government butter to make shortbread.

Shrimp and Jalapeno Hush Puppies recipe

1/4 cup minced onion
1/4 pound raw shrimp, shelled, deveined
1 whole jalapeno, seeded, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 cups white cornmeal
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups water
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon melted bacon drippings
Oil, for deep frying

Saute onion, shrimp, jalapeno and parsley in 2 teaspoons of oil for 1 to 2
minutes. Set aside.

Mix together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt.

Bring 1 1/2 cups water to rolling boil. Remove pan from heat. Pour in
cornmeal mixture; beat well. Cool 2 to 3 minutes. Add sauteed ingredients,
egg and bacon grease, beating well after each addition. Completed dough

teaspoonsful of dough into hot oil and fry about 1 minute, until golden
brown and cooked through. Drain and serve hot.

definitely look for popcorn shrimp. it is a budget minded substitute for shrimp
and my kids love it. i could see it being a popular school lunch. too bad my
kids schools serve chicken nuggets instead of them.

I'd guess cornmeal.

shrimp poppers?

1. What's that?
2. Is this a rich school district?
3. Isn't the recipe on some website for you? Most parents what to
know what the school is feeding their children and I don't mean just
the name of it. So caveat emptor - they could serve shrimp coated in
chopped peanuts and call them poppers.
