Cajun Creamy Pasta With Shrimp & Andouille Sausage

[@ashdacraft]

I love that you typed out the recipe instructions. Thank you-trying this tonight

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks! I like to list out all of the steps in full detail!

[@sandyk1352]

I made this tonight and wowsers! It came out perfectly, Had to double the recipe due to number of us dining...your instructions were easy to follow and the result is that we have a keeper! You're right about restaurant quality and I kept thinking about how much it would have cost to have ordered this out. Really enjoyed it. Thank you.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks so much for coming back to let me know it turned out well! That is what motivates me to keep posting my recipes!

[@cherylcrawford7570]

What a combination of flavors! The heavy cream really brought the flavors together. You are very generous with the spice which suits my taste. Can’t wait to try.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Getting a really high quality cajun seasoning is key to this dish!

[@marktheregulardude8651]

I made this as a surprise for my brother 's birthday and invited his friends... he loved it! So did everybody else, the ladies were IMPRESSED

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Glad to hear it, my friend. That is what it's ALL about!

[@IvysKitchen]

that looks absolutely delicious!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks! It was! I don't usually eat such a decadent meal but every now and then you have to splurge!

[@satishjoshi1786]

Thank you! This turned out amazing! My kids really loved it.....and so did I!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks! It can be hard to please children these days at the dinner table!

[@satishjoshi1786]

You are so right! Today is another day of making this amazing dish....my kids asked for it lol. Thanks again and keep up the great work! Looking forward to other recipes from you.

[@christiangarrett8297]

Excellent recipe! A restaurant here makes this dish and you helped me cook it for my family for dinner this evening!!! Thanks so much and great work!!!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

That’s great! I actually had this dish in a restaurant called Gordon Biersch and then researched how to make it at home!

[@vanessas.9199]

I just got done making this & boy oh boy it was delicious!! I only had half and half instead of heavy whipping cream but still worked out. Also I didn’t have any sausage so I only used shrimp & chicken. On top didn’t have any cajun seasoning so made my own. Your recipe is beyond great! Thank you!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks so much! And yes as you mention, sometimes you have to IMPROVISE in the kitchen, well done!

[@hydro.K0]

[@tobiville86]

Thank you soooooooo much for sharing such amazing meal & recipe. I followed your instructions and the pasta has been the best I've had so far. I used a lot of shrimp cos I'm shrimp lover. The sausage too was OMG.... booom. My kids love the pasta. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

I’m glad the recipe turned out and that your family enjoyed it! Thanks for coming back to let me know!

[@kaywilliams5381]

Prepared this dish about six months ago, Hubby loved it and of course, so did I. Will prepare it again tomorrow!!! Kinda reminds me of Cheddar's New Orleans Pasta but better!!! #Scrumptious

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks! I had this dish at a restaurant and adapted it to my tastes. Restaurants are a great source of inspiration for new recipes!

[@williamcrawford4529]

What a fantastic recipe with all of the various flavors, spices & textures! I especially like the use of heavy cream to cut the acidity of the tomatoes & temper the heat. I will be trying this real soon.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

The creaminess really adds a nice touch to this one!

[@FZAChannel]

Aside from your delicious dish can’t help but admire your clean stove.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Haha thanks! It gets a full cleaning before every video!

I'd say 3-4 people could eat very well.

[@thegourmetgambit4238]

Lovely recipe Eric, shared!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks!

[@SithLordNefaar022]

I tried this back before xmas but i was short on penne so i added a blend of ziti rigati & some rigatoni & needless to say it was *THE* 💣 , need a redo of this ASAP but now i think i wanna do some linguine or fettuccine, need a long pasta this time 😇🫡🤤

[@Nevagoinback]

Looks really good... thank you! Sausage is pronounced On-doo-wee

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Lol thanks! Many people have clowned me in the comments for saying it wrong but I am glad you like the dish regardless!

[@maygarcia4034]

What brand Cajun seasoning did you use?

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

I got it from the Spice & Tea Exchange. It is pricey but very high quality!

Thank you 🙏🏽

I got these white plates at a cooking store called Sur La Table. They go on sale there from time to time!

[@redgoatgamer]

Awesome!

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks!

[@NYJocelyn]

Can i use half and half?

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Yea that would work, a little less decadent but it will still be good.

[@clairevoyant4819]

Thank you for this recipe! I’m so glad I found this video. This dish was so delicious. I just have one question, will doubling the recipe affect how it comes out? I want to be able to use the full can of tomatoes and full box of pasta the next time I make it, but I don’t know if that will change how it tastes.

[@tsundere6163]

If everything is doubled it should be fine

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Oh yes you can double it, you just need a very large saute pan like a 5 or 6 quart.

[@wordsculpt]

You will also need to somewhat increase cooking times. Just moniter it.

[@mickiemanroee]

Can I use crushed tomatoes instead? Will it change the flavor

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

You could definitely use them if that is what you have on hand. I think that the San Marzano tomatoes are the highest quality but they are, essentially, a version of crushed tomatoes.

[@sistercalhoun4444]

Bro I Watched all the Ads all away through II figured that's the least I could do since you was teaching me how to cook something I've been wanted to learn how to cook. But the last Ad .... I almost wanted to skip because it was over 3 minutes long. But I can do the 1minute and a half Ads. Even if I'm not watching them I'll let them play through to support. But 3 minutes to long . Appreciate It Bro !

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Oh wow thanks! I wish the ads weren't so long but the KZbin Creator doesn't get to pick which ads play.

[@virnan]

Trying this tonight. ill post later on how it went.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks! Hope it turned out nicely for you!

[@charliehorse8112]

Lol the sound of him eating 🤣

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Lol sorry, I forget how close the mic is to my face and throat! Many have commented about that!

[@vmarie9905]

Would this taste good if fettuccine noodles was used? Or better with penne pasta?

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Fettuccine would also work very well!

[@vmarie9905]

@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking I made this for Father's day. I end up using penne noodles. Man it was a hit! Thanks for this good recipe.

[@wordsculpt]

You really want a tubular noodle that holds the sauce. Flat pasta, like fettucini, are used for thicker, heavier sauces that sit on top. If you don't want tubes (why?) You could substitute something like rotini.

[@jesussalgado7210]

How do I get the recipe?

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

It should be in the description box.

[@cameronduplechin3588]

EN-DO-EEE!!!!! that’s how you say it

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

thanks I was not aware of that.

[@vnkable]

Aun do ee

[@marthacastillo7834]

Question, can I used a regular Ragu spaghetti sauce and just add the heavy cream?

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Well you can but the results won't be as good as following the steps but yes that would work in a pinch!

[@swayyaviles2163]

Hopefully you see this comment..I want to cook this tomorrow night...how many does this serve??

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Sorry I didn't see this sooner, I'd say 3-4 people can eat very well from this.

[@emmiesblessed8800]

Can u substitute the heavy cream?

[@emmiesblessed8800]

For Parmesan

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

It would change the dish considerably but it would work.

[@emmiesblessed8800]

Simply Elegant Home Cooking ok jus asked I was cooking it while watching you and didn’t have no heavy cream 😂 but it’s ok! I see a lot of my fav dishes require it so I bought A lot of of😂 Thanks!! It was delicious

[@mikereaves6911]

Looks good! BTW - It's pronounced ahn-do-ee, not ahn-do-lee. Used to live in La Place, LA, which claims to be the Andouille capitol.

[@gordongoldbach34]

Not to be too specific, but, the correct pronunciation is "Ann Dewey", and the pasta is "PEH-neh

[@catinawilliams4645]

Actually they’re pronounced AUN DEWEY......48 y/o lifelong New Orleanian 🥰 and PENAY

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Yes, I did screw up the pronunciation.

[@S__123]

“Andooley sausage”

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Yes unfortunately I said it wrong.

[@johnnysgirl7373]

That and PEN pasta hurt my heart.

[@naomichinyeluba5358]

I don’t have crush tomatoes I have tomotoe paste instead

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Hmm you might be able to substitute but the tomato paste is more concentrated so you might need to adjust the ratio.

[@wordsculpt]

Don't, repeat, DON'T substitute tomato paste! It is fundamentally different ! It is far too thick, lacks the acidity and freshness of tomatoes, and has added sweetness. Take the trouble to buy whole tomatoes in juice, and the few seconds it takes to chop or crush them. You will be Very glad that you did.

[@TrevorDuran3390]

You should cut the audio and do voice over. And then work on your narrator voice. Add some music and an intro title. You will greatly increase your views.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Thanks for the feedback, I do have plans to step up my production quality.

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

@@SimplyElegantHomeCookingI really dig your videos as is. Many of us like the sound of the actual cooking in real time. Many of us also prefer no music, (can be somewhat distracting and sometimes get in the way). I’m no expert, but not sure how, (or how many), views would be gained simply by adding music when some like it and some don’t. Do you own thing. Lead, don’t follow. Maybe don’t get too caught up in chasing likes or views and just keep making quality recipes with your calm and engaging personality. P.S., I don’t mean to offend anyone, just sharing my thoughts. 🥘♥️

[@wordsculpt]

​@@SimplyElegantHomeCookingPlease don't add music! I cannot count the number of videos that I couldn't watch to the end because of annoying music. And we all have different tastes!

[@victoriamahon3765]

The recipe looks great but my god the eating sounds you should edit those out it’s like the mic is right on your throat we can hear you swallow it’s so weird.

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

I will try to avoid that in the future thanks for the tip.

[@sulatlalaki]

Pronounced "Ann DOO we" you don't pronounce the "L"

[@mhande9973]

You know I liked your video until I could hear you eating it’s so gross

[@SimplyElegantHomeCooking]

Lol well that was at the end so I am glad you liked the other 95% of it! Thanks for stopping by!

[@alexblaze8878]

“Andewey” sausage (not “andooly”) “Pennay” pasta. (Not “pen”) Otherwise great video. Oh also, please! We do not want to hear you chewing. Gross.

[@TheNaphisa03]

You are an extremely negative and overly critical person. I bet you are difficult to be with. Good luck in life. You need lots of it, asshole!!!.

[@alexblaze8878]

Naphisa Modmonss lol. Nope I’m a school teacher and how words are pronounced matter. Also, manners matter as well. If you don’t want to hear constructive criticism, then you probably don’t care about improving what you do. I’m assuming this guy does care hence my criticisms. He can take it or leave it, that’s his business. I guarantee you he won’t mispronounce ‘andouille’ or ‘penne’ again now that he knows as I’m sure-unlike you-he doesn’t get butt hurt over hearing honest criticisms and truly wants to improve his videos.

[@focusontheroadthereisnothi6763]

You didn’t give constructive criticism. All you did was correct two pronunciation errors, and nit picked about chewing.

[@alexblaze8878]

Focus on the road, there is nothing, but the road. Yes correcting a KZbin content creator about the correct pronunciation of words IS constructive criticism...unless you’re implying he’d rather remain ignorant?! I refuse to believe that. And wet chewing sounds into the microphone IS rude: Manners 101

[@alexblaze8878]

Ya see the next time he does a video wherein he has to pronounce ANDOUILLE or Penne, he will get it right [id bet you a $1000 he gets it right trust me] and that helps him in creating better content. I prefer he be better able to pronounce words correctly even if my delivery method is a bit harsh. You’d rather he continue to mispronounce words out of a misguided effort to be “nice”. You’re being nice does nothing to help him whereas my original comment DOES enlighten him.

[@VagaBumAdventures]

Cooking is better than the pronunciation
