I am trying to search for a French recipe but I can't figure out how to spell it...?

Question

I looked on google but they aren't even giving me any spelling suggestions. It is pronounced eff-oo-tay.

Thanks!!

Answer 1

It's spelled Etouffee and here are some links for ya:

Answer 2

It sounds like etouffee, which means smothered.  You can find recipes for this on Creole/Cajun sites.  It is usually made in this country with minced onion, peppers, herbs. parsley, spices and often some kind of seafood (altho not always).
