re: gumbo advice

quote:

---

I start browning my sausage in skillet then throw the okra in with it. i've also added a can of Rotel and smothered it down and thrown it in the gumbo

It's smothered..not sliced up and chunky. It has flavor and makes the gumbo really thick. I do not like the sliced okra in a gumbo.

ETA: here is a pot of smothered okra. Add a quart of that to a gumbo.
