Ingredients for Roux:
Oil and flour

Directions:Fill a huge pot with water to 1/3 its capacity and bring to boil. Once boiling stir in roux gradually to reach desired thickness and reduce to low to medium heat. Stir often to ensure roux does not stick to pot. Allow roux to cook for 1 hour and add ingredients. Once roux is cooked you may add a variety of meats (i.e. chicken and sausage, turkey, game, seafood). You may also include okra to your ingredients. |
