INGREDIENTS:
½ cup flour
½ cup pork lard
2 celery ribs, cut into large pieces
1 large yellow onion, cut into large pieces
1 large green pepper, cut into large pieces
1 pound andouille sausage
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
Crystal hot sauce, to taste
1 (14.5) ounce can diced tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
4 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon file
½ pound okra
1 pound peeled, deveined shrimp
Steamed rice, for serving

COOKING METHOD:
1. In a large Dutch oven over medium low heat, add lard. Once the lard has melted, sprinkle flour over top and whisk to combine. Continue cooking until the flour has thinned and turned a deep brown color, about 20-30 minutes.
2. While the roux is cooking, add celery, onion and green pepper to a food processor and blend until the vegetables are finely chopped.
3. Add the vegetable mixture to the roux and stir to combine. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Add andouille sausage, bay leaves, dried thyme, Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce and chicken stock and bring to a simmer.
4. Simmer for 45 minutes to an hour or until the liquid has reduced by ⅓.
5. Add file and stir to combine. Simmer for 10 minutes, then add okra and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Taste and adjust with seasoning as needed.
6. Serve with steamed rice.

  1. Wow… so… your family from Nova Scotia originally, that means you and Isaac Toups are cousins.

  2. Bro you are so sad! You put tomatoes in your gumbo! Bro I just unsubscribed to your channel! That’s so sad! That’s very disrespectful to us Cajuns! That’s an actual slap in the face bro! You just slapped me in the face!

  3. I know she put cream and bacon innthat carbonara 😭😭😭😭😭😭 it's nice tho

  4. Did anyone else experience Matty-ception? I watched a Matty video with a Matty commercial embedded, but then I got a YT commercial of Matty? 🧐 should I go pee? Should I jave a token?

  5. Can’t get past the okra, stuff tastes like raw insects and mucus. Everything else that goes into a gumbo I love, just not that disgusting plant.

  6. Toups taught me to bang out the roux hard and fast.

    I watched him build a caramel roux in 2 minutes.
    Gotta watch it like a risotto.

  7. I came up as a chef in Nola and it looks pretty good. I would’ve taken the roux darker but that’s personal preference. There are a million gumbo recipes down there. I like mine dark as hell, no tomatoes, chicken and sausage. It’s a pretty traditional style, as far as things go.
