CRAB AND SHRIMP GUMBO WITH OKRA



Crab and Shrimp Gumbo with Okra image

My grandma gave me a famous Louisiana cookbook (if you are a Louisiana native, you know what I'm talking about) when I was a teenager. I watched her make famous-around-town gumbo so many times as a kid. I took the book's "second edition" recipe and what I learned from her and came up with my own hybrid of the two. My daughters have asked me for my recipe, so here is my best recollection of it.

Time 3h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

½ cup canola oil
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 pound chopped okra
1 large white onion, finely chopped
3 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons canola oil
6 cups water, or more to taste
1 teaspoon gumbo file powder, or to taste
½ teaspoon Creole seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®), or to taste
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 leaf (blank)s bay leaves, or more to taste
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 (6 ounce) cans lump crabmeat
4 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Heat 1/2 cup oil in a large stockpot over medium-low heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the oil just begins to bubble. Whisk in the flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until the flour is very dark brown and the color of melted chocolate, about 45 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add okra, onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until onions are translucent and veggies are cooked, 6 to 8 minutes. Add diced tomatoes, cover, and bring to a simmer.
  • Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add okra and cook, stirring constantly, until tender and no longer stringy or slimy, about 10 minutes. Add to simmering roux mixture and simmer over low heat, stirring frequently, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add 6 cups water plus file powder, Creole seasoning, salt, pepper, cayenne, and bay leaves. Cook, uncovered, tasting a few times as it cooks to adjust spices and adding more water if necessary, until gumbo is as thick as you would like, at least 2 to 3 hours. The longer it cooks, the better.
  • Stir in shrimp and crabmeat; cook for 15 more minutes. Ladle gumbo over hot rice in serving bowls.

BROKEN CRAB AND OKRA STEW



Broken Crab and Okra Stew image

This recipe came from GULLAH HOME COOKING THE DAUFUSKIE WAY by SALLIE ANN ROBINSON. This recipe is just okra and tomatoes with crabs added. It can be served with rice,cornbread or grits, those of you who know grits. But remember you will need your God-given tools for eating the crabs. This is great at fish fries, instead of catfish stew, use this recipe.

Provided by mightyro_cooking4u

Categories     Crab

Time 1h

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -6 raw blue crabs
2 -3 slices pork fatback, bacon strips (or use bacon)
1 medium onion, cut into wedges (I like to chop my onions so that onions are throughout the dish)
1 1/2 cups water
1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes (optional)
salt and pepper
2 cups cut okra

Steps:

  • Pour boiling water over crabs to stun them to prevent them pinching you.
  • "Debark" and clean them (remove the top shell and gills), break in half.
  • If you wish, remove legs and back fins.
  • Fry the bacon in a large skillet, add crab pieces, onons, water, and if using, stewed tomatoes.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and simmer 15 minutes.
  • Add okra and boil gently, stirring often, 15 to 20 minutes- or simmer until the okra is tender but the crab is still firm.

  • Place a good sized pot on the stove and heat up the oil. Fry the onions in the oil until they just begin to caramelize.
  • Chop the tomatoes into small chunks and place them into a blender or food processor. If using scotch bonnet pepper, you may add the desired amount to the blender. Pulse or liquidize the ingredients until smooth. Pour them over the caramelized onion mixture and allow the sauce to cook down and thicken. This should take 10 minutes, and the oil will begin to rise to the top. Stir regularly to prevent burning.

12 BEST OKRA RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com
  • Deep-Fried Okra. Fried okra is a classic for a good reason. A light cornmeal coating on the pods and a quick dunk in hot oil make fried okra crispy and completely delicious.
  • Garlic Sautéed Okra. This garlic sautéed okra recipe is so simple and includes a useful tip for preparing okra: Pat dry after rinsing. For this dish, you only need a bit of oil, sliced garlic, and okra.
  • Grilled Okra. The charred bits on grilled okra highlight the grass-like flavor of these beautiful green pods. It really is the easiest way to cook okra and it's almost as crowd-pleasing as the fried variety.
  • Roasted Okra. Roasting is another method that guarantees crisp okra every time. Oven-roasted okra is simple and brings out that delicious nutty, slightly grassy flavor with an almost sweet edge.
  • Okra With Tomatoes. This braised okra with tomatoes dish includes a flavorful blend of spices. Even though the okra is cooked in liquid, the acid in the tomatoes breaks up its gelatinous tendencies.
  • Pickled Okra. For an unexpected treat, try pickling okra. This process allows you to enjoy the distinctive grassy flavor of okra well past the summer and fall harvest.
  • Chilled Okra Salad. A favorite Japanese recipe, this chilled okra salad is a delicious option for hot days. Similar to freezing okra for storage, the recipe blanches it in boiling water, then shocks it in an ice bath to retain the bright green color.
  • Curried Okra With Onions. Not only does this recipe create a tasty okra dish, but it also includes essential tips for cooking okra. The curried okra is stir-fried with onion and tomato and seasoned with cayenne, curry powder, and turmeric.
  • Indian Crispy Okra. A slightly different approach to fried okra, kurkuri bhindi is a crispy Indian okra recipe. In this one, the okra is sliced thinly, dipped into a dry batter of gram flour, turmeric, chili powder, carom, and chaat masala, then deep-fried.
  • Stewed Okra in Tomato Sauce. A Greek vegetarian dish, bamies latheres me domata is stewed okra in tomato sauce. It's cooked longer than most okra recipes, which would normally create slimy okra.
