When The Roux Is The Right Color, Add The Onion, Bell Pepper And Garlic - Sauté Till Wilted. add The Whole Mess To The Pot Of Browned Meat, Add Enough Water To Cover All The Meat - And The Worcestershire - 1 Tablespoon Or 3 Good Shakes! Stir It Up Until Everything Is Mixed Well - No Lumps From The Roux - It Should Be Really Soupy/watery. If Its Not Dark Enough, Add A Little Kitchen Bouquet To Darken It. Bring It To A Boil. Lower To Simmer, Cover And Cook For About 40 Minutes. Add Green Onion Tops, Cover And Cook About 10 Minutes. serve Over Rice In A Bowl, Like Soup - Not Like Gravy!!! My Mama Used To Make Potato Salad With It - But That's A Lot Of Starch For One Meal, So You Could Just Make A Green Salad - This Is A Heavy Meal, So You Don't Need A Lotta Sides.... bon Appetite!!! |
