Method

Gumbo Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the andouille sausage and sauté until browned, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and celery to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 3

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, bay leaves, Cajun seasoning, thyme, okra (if using), salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Gumbo

    Reduce the heat to low and let the gumbo simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Add Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the pot and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

Rice Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the Delta Blues rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Gumbo and Rice

    Spoon the gumbo into bowls over a scoop of Delta Blues rice. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
