While it is still fresh in my brain, I made gumbo yesterday, the little piece of paper I had to create it from has ingredients, nothing else. So to keep it in memory, and to share...
Gumbo
1/2 stick of butter
1/4 flour
Make a rue, get it really dark, like chocolate.
Add 2 cans of diced tomato, pints.
Add these...
Chop up small
1 cup onion
1 cup bell pepper
1 cup celery
Add diced potato if you like, maybe a couple small ones
Andouille sausage, sliced
Creole seasoning to taste, I added a good bit, maybe 3 tsp
Salt and pepper if you think it needs it
Simmer for about an hour, or all veggies are done
Add shrimp for the last 5 minutes
Time to eat!
