Instructions

  • Cook the Rice: Prepare rice according to the package’s instructions, and fluff with a fork. Cover the pot with a lid to keep warm.
  • Prepare the Gumbo: Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  • Add the flour to the pot and stir continuously to make a roux. Cook the roux, stirring frequently, until it turns dark brown. Be careful not to burn it.

  • Mix with rice or serve over top.
