Bisque sauce made from shrimp shells is a great addition to fish or seafood dishes. It is also suitable for mashed potatoes. Many cooks believe that the taste and aroma of the sauce directly depends on the quality of the shells.

Step 1

Heat vegetable oil in a thick-bottomed saucepan. Add onion and garlic. Fry for 4 minutes until golden brown. Pour in tomato paste and stir. Simmer for 1 minute. Then add carrots and shells. Salt and pepper. Stir again. Leave for 3 minutes. Pour in water, bring to a boil over high heat. Then reduce heat to low and cook the sauce for 40 minutes. Pour the contents of the saucepan into a blender bowl. Grind into a puree. Rub the sauce through a sieve to remove shell particles.
