I can remember my mother making "Egg Stew". Was just a roux base with sliced boiled eggs in it. We ate it over rice and thought it was great.


Sounds interesting. A few questions:

Dark Roux?
Trinity?
Diluted with what? Chicken Broth? Water?
How thick?
How seasoned?

From what I remember (from 30+ years ago), it was a thick, very dark roux. She'd put sliced onions and the sliced boiled eggs in it.

We'd eat it over rice.

Don't remember anything but onions and egg in it. Would imagine seasoned with just salt and black pepper.

She wasn't a very "exotic" cook. Just the basics.

It was tremendous.
