INSTRUCTIONS
In a large heavy saucepan combine the oil and the flour and cook the
roux over moderately low heat, stirring constantly with a metal
spatula, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it is a deep caramel color.
Add the onion and the bell pepper and cook the mixture over moderate
heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened. Add
the clam juice, the tomatoes, and 1 cup water, bring the liquid to a
boil, and simmer the mixture gently for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it
is reduced and thickened. Stir in the crab meat and salt and pepper
to taste, simmer the stew for 5 minutes, and stir in the scallion
green. Serve the stew over the rice.
