INSTRUCTIONS

In a deep, heavy skillet, heat oil over high heat until just smoking.
Gradually add flour, whisking constantly until incorporated. Continue to
cook, whisking, until roux darkens to a rich, deep, nutty color.
Immediately add onions, green peppers, and celery and cook, stirring, 3
minutes. Add 3 cups of the okra, garlic, herbs and spices. Meanwhile, in a
large Dutch oven or heavy soup pot, bring stock to a vigorous boil. Spoon
roux a little at a time into boiling stock, stirring well after each
addition until dissolved and liquid has thickened. Reduce heat to a simmer
and add tomatoes and Andouille. Simmer 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Add
remaining 1 cup okra and continue to simmer 10 minutes more. Add shrimp and
continue to simmer 3 minutes, or until just cooked through. Before serving,
stir in file powder to thicken. This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
