Okra gumbo Recipe

Prepare the Ingredients

Chop the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Slice the Andouille sausage and set aside.

Sauté Vegetables

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add Sausage and Garlic

Add the sliced Andouille sausage and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the sausage is browned.

Combine Remaining Ingredients

Stir in the Cajun seasoning, diced tomatoes, okra, chicken broth, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil.

Simmer

Reduce the heat to low and let the gumbo simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serve

Remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve the gumbo over cooked rice.
