"Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo 'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o..." Could this be the same crawfish pie in this "Jambayla" song?
 
Ingredients
3/4 medium chopped bell pepper 1 large onion chopped
2 ribs celery chopped 3/4 cup butter
6 tbsp crawfish fat (optional) 1 1/2 pound crawfish tails
1/2 cup each minced parsley and green onions 1/2 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp salt 1/4 tsp red pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder cornstarch to thicken
Dough for double crust (pie crust) ``````````````````````````````
 
Directions
In a medium saucepan, saute bell pepper, onion and celery in butter until tender; add crawfish fat and simmer 10 minutes. Add crawfish tails, green onions, parsley and seasonings. Thicken if necessary, with a little cornstarch; let it cook long enough to thicken gravy.

Place half of the pie crust dough in a nine-inch pie pan. Fill with cooled filling. Place top crust on pie, moisten edges and seal edges. Cut two or three one-inch-long slits in the top crust.
Individual tart/pies can be made and baked using muffins in pan with large cups. Bake 10 minutes at 450 degrees; lower oven to 375 degrees and cook for 35 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown.
