POTATO GUMBO

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add half of the oil. When it is shimmering and hot, add the celery, green bell pepper, and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Saute until the onion has become just barely translucent.
• Add the cayenne and filé powder, stirring to coat the vegetables. Continue to cook until they just start to brown on the edges.
• Remove the cooked vegetables to a crock pot set on "high".
• Returning to the large skillet, add the remaining half of the oil and the andouille sausage. Saute in the hot oil until the sausage pieces start to brown on the sides. Add the molasses and stir to coat the sausage in it, watching so that the molasses does not burn.
• Add the chicken broth to the skillet to de-glaze and get up all the darkened, stuck bits. Remove the molasses-crusted andouille and chicken broth and add it to the vegetables in the crock pot.
• Add the potato pieces (I prefer to keep the skins on) to the crock pot and cover it.
• Depending on the power of your crock pot, cook for 3-5 hours or just until the potatoes are tender.
• Taste the gumbo and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve.

CAJUN POTATO GUMBO

Steps:

• Boil salt meat on the side for about 20 minutes; then cut into small bite size pieces. While that's boiling heat oil and saute onions, bell pepper, and celery for just about 5 minutes into a nice size soup pot. Throw in your salt meat with about 2 cups of water. At this time you can add some salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper, Let this boil for about 15 minutes. In the meantime while boiling, cut your potatoes in half. After about 15 minutes throw in potatoes with some more water; enough for the potatoes to be able to boil and add more salt and pepper. If you like cover it but not to tightly. Add 1 to 2 cups more of water if needed. After potatoes are boiled turn off heat and add about one teaspoon of file. If you are feeding more than 4 to 5 people just add more of all the ingredients and add more water. Serve over rice, enjoy and please pass the potatoes!

VEGETARIAN GUMBO RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add ½ cup (75g) diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent.
• Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, until most of the juices have evaporated.
• Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, the soy sauce, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon oregano, ¼ teaspoon cayenne, 2 teaspoons vegan Worcestershire sauce, ½ teaspoon liquid smoke, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until all of the liquid has evaporated and the spices are fragrant.

Then, add the mushroom mixture, bread crumbs, vital wheat gluten, and 2 tablespoons vegetable broth and mix well until combined. Use your hands to knead the mixture until cohesive, then begin to roll about a tablespoon at a time of the mixture into "meatballs".

POTATO SALAD FOR GUMBO RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Cover the peeled and cubed potatoes with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat by 1 or 2 marks and cook (uncovered) until potatoes are tender. Mine were done in about 10 minutes. Set aside in a colander to drain and cool somewhat while you chop the celery, onion, and green onion. Transfer drained potatoes to a mixing bowl, and using a potato masher, coarsely mash the potatoes, leaving some small chunks. Top with the chopped veggies, along with the remaining ingredients. Stir gently to combine, adding a little more mayo for desired consistency. Transfer salad to a serving bowl and garnish top with paprika, if desired.. or add a scoop right in the bowl of gumbo and rice and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers. Note: In the other photo it is shown with my Cajun Chicken & Sausage Gumbo in my Soups cookbook.

SPICY TURKEY SWEET POTATO GUMBO

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat, and cook and stir the turkey thigh pieces until browned and no longer pink in the middle, about 10 minutes. Set the turkey aside. In the same pot, place the sausage, and break into chunks with a spatula. Cook and stir the sausage until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes.
• Stir the onion, celery, and green pepper into the pot. Continue to cook and stir until the onions are translucent, about 5 more minutes. Mix in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute; then stir in the flour. Cook and stir the mixture until the flour forms a coating on the sausage and vegetables and begins to brown, 5 to 8 more minutes.
• Mix in the sweet potato, thyme, oregano, chicken broth, tomatoes, and bay leaf, and bring the gumbo to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring often, until thickened and the sweet potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the cooked turkey and hot sauce, and simmer until the turkey is heated through. Discard the bay leaf before serving.
