  1. Put the mirliton in a pot with sufficient water to cover and bring to a boil.
  2. Simmer covered for 45 min to 1 hour, or possibly till the mirliton is tender sufficient to be easily pierced with the blade of a small sharp knife. Remove from the water and set aside to cold. Throw away the water.
  3. When cold sufficient to handle, cut the mirliton in half lengthwise and throw away the seed. Scrape out the meat, making a shell of the skin about 1/4-inch thick. Chop the meat and set it aside with the shells.
  4. Heat a heavy skillet and add in the onion. Stir with a wooden spoon while cooking over high heat till lightly colored.
  5. Add in the garlic and cook stirring occasionally to be sure which all is cooking proportionately and nothing is sticking to the bottom or possibly sides of the skillet Continue cooking for 2 min.
  6. Add in the shrimp to the mix and stir. Reduce the heat to medium and cover the skillet for 1 minute to cook the shrimp.
  7. Stir in the bread crumbs and continue heating for another minute, then remove from heat.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375F degrees.
  9. Let the stuffing mix cold slightly and spoon it into the mirliton shells. Place them in a baking pan.
  10. Bake for 20 min.
  11. NOTE: This dish can be served as an appetizer, an entree, or possibly even as a side course with another dish.
  12. VARIATIONS:*You can add in an egg white to the mix before you stuff it into the shells; but it is not necessary to bind the filling.*Use crabmeat in place of the shrimp.
