Ingredients

4 quarts shrimp stock

1/2 lb kielba sasausage; sliced bite size

1 tablespoon minced garlic

3/4 cup oil

1 cup flour

2 cups onion; chopped

2 cups bell green pepper; chopped

1-1/2 cups celery; chopped

1-1/2 cups okra; sliced bite size

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon fine ground white pepper

1/2 teaspoon fine ground cayenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon fine ground cumin

2 dried whole bay leaves

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

1/2 teaspoon dried crushed Greek oregano leaves

3 lbs shrimp; peeled, cleaned

Directions

Brown the sliced sausage slightly and add to stock; add garlic and bring to a boil.

Prepare a roux on the dark side and add the onions, bell pepper, celery, okra and seasonings to it. Stir until the roux and vegetables form a mass. Drop by spoonfuls into the boiling stock. Mix and simmer for twenty minutes until the vegetables are cooked.

Add the shrimp and simmer for about 7 minutes. The oil may be removed from the surface at this point.

Filé is served aside and may be added to the gumbo in the bowls. Sever with white rice.

Mmm this sounds really good! I LOVE shrimp and have always wondered how to make good shrimp gumbo. I think I'll take your word on it considering you've been cooking since you were 9. Anyway, I can't wait to try this one out. :)
