Directions: |
Directions:In a cast iron skillet (or large fry pan) make the roux with the oil and flour stirring constantly till the mixture turns a dark brown. (dont burn it) cut up all the veggies (not the okra). When the roux is ready toss in the veggies with a small amount of water and cook for 6-10 minutes stirring constantly. Then add the tomatoes, bay leaves thyme and parsley along with the onion soup mix, salt and pepper. Add the beer and fish stock at this time also. You can also add the sausage at this time and simmer on low for about an hour. Then toss in the shrimp and tobasco sauce to your taste. Make the rice and serve the gumbo over the rice. |
