🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Make the Roux: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat Olive Oil over medium heat. Whisk in All-Purpose Flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the roux is a light brown color, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Onion, Green Bell Pepper, and Red Bell Pepper to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in Garlic, Smoked Paprika, Cayenne Pepper, Thyme, and Oregano and cook for 1 minute more.
Add Andouille Sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Diced Tomatoes (with their juice) and Okra to the pot. Season with Salt and Black Pepper.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the okra is tender and the stew has thickened.
Serve hot with rice or cornbread.
