O.K., I'm game. What's your method?
(Can't be as much fun as mine though. I learned from a cajun Lady and she taught me that the secret is 2 beers! Stir the roux for as much time as it takes you to drink 2 beers. When you are done with the beers, the roux is ready!)  |

Cheater Roux
Da Cajun Chef’s greatest dream done come true.
Ingredients:

1 c. Canola Oil (or lard!)
Preparation:
Wisk flour and oil in a microwave safe glass bowl. Microwave on high in one minute increments, whisking each minute. Continue process until roux becomes the color you prefer.

I see a gumbo cook off in the future oneday. Mrs. IMS whips out an awesome gumbo. The recipe won the gumbo cook off at thr Rockport seafair 2 years in a row. Of course we were younger and full of zip back then. Its her recipe not mine by far. I do have have to furnish fresh fish,shrimp, and fresh hand picked crabmeat. I love trying different gumbos. I could live off them.....and some fried fish.  _________________ I LIKE MINE FRIED. |
