1 cup vegetable oil
⅔ cup all-purpose flour

  • Pour the vegetable oil into a microwave-safe glass bowl. Whisk in the flour until no lumps remain.
  • Cook in the microwave at 70% power for 6 minutes. This will create white roux. If you would like a darker roux, carefully stir, and return to the microwave. Cook at 70% power 2 to 3 minutes at a time until the desired color has been achieved.

MAKING A MICROWAVE ROUX RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Making a Microwave Roux Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by JimMac

Number Of Ingredients 3

Yield: About 1 Cup Roux
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cooking oil

Steps:

  • Whisk flour and oil together until smooth and lump-free in a 1-quart Pyrex (or other microwavable) measuring cup or bowl--don't use plastic! Place the measuring cup in the center of the microwave oven and cook on high for 10 to 30 minutes, removing cup and whisking to mix well every 2 minutes. Use a pot holder, as the Pyrex cup will be very hot! Cook until the desired color is reached: it takes 20 minutes to make the medium (or peanut butter colored) roux in the microwave --see photo. Roux Facts: A darker roux (one that has been cooked longer) will have more flavor, but will have less thickening power. This is because flour loses its ability to thicken the longer it is cooked. The roux seems to be cooking very fast or getting very dark, turn the heat down. Above all, stir almost constantly--at least every 15 seconds; with each stir the roux gets just a bit more brown. When the roux reaches the desired color, you may proceed with a recipe, adding the holy trinity of onion, celery, and bell pepper, and whatever main ingredient you are using, plus seasonings and water. If you are making the roux ahead to keep as needed, transfer it to a large glass or plastic bowl to stop the cooking process, stirring occasionally as it cools down. Roux can be kept, covered, in the refrigerator for two months, or in the freezer for six months. If freezing the roux, place 1 tablespoon of the roux in each section of an ice cube tray and, when firm, transfer to a freezer bag. When a recipe calls for 1/2 cup roux, pop out 8 cubes (8 tablespoons, or 1/2 cup). You may also use a cube or two at a time if your stew, soup or sauce needs a bit of thickening. Quantities 3 cups oil + 3 cups flour = 3 2/3 cups roux 1 cup oil + 1 cup flour = 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons roux If a recipe calls for making a roux with 1/2 cup oil and 1/2 cup flour, use 1/2 cup of prepared roux, or a quantity of prepared roux equivalent to the amount of flour called for in the recipe. To thicken 6 to 8 cups of liquid for a gumbo, soup or other dish, use 1 cup prepared roux, or start with 1 cup flour and 1 cup fat. What to Look for When Cooking Roux: After a few minutes the roux is likely to become foamy and remain so for several minutes. After about 10 minutes the roux will begin to turn dark and will develop a nutlike fragrance. After about 20 minutes the roux will start to cook faster and must be watched more carefully so it doesn't burn. Lower the heat if necessary--a burned roux is only fit for the garbage. If the roux starts to smoke, lower the heat or turn the off for a bit to allow the roux to cool down. If the oil gets hotter than the point at which it starts to smoke, it may negatively affect the taste.

MICROWAVE ROUX



Microwave Roux image

This is the only method I've used for making roux for over 20 years! It's very quick and has always given me a perfect dark brown roux. I usually will just make the flour and oil part (in whatever proportions my recipe calls for) in the microwave and finish with the addition of the other vegetables and ingredients in a big pot on the stove. It's originally from a cookbook called "Tout de Suite a la Microwave" by Jean K. Durkee.

Time 32m

Yield 4 cups roux

Number Of Ingredients 9

2/3 cup flour
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 cups onions, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1/2 cup green onion, tops included, chopped
1/4 cup hot water, approximately

Steps:

  • Mix oil and flour together in a 4 cup glass container (I use a Pyrex 4-cup).
  • Microwave uncovered on high for 6-7 minutes.
  • Stir at 6 minutes with a wooden spoon--roux will be a light brown at this time and will need to cook 30 seconds to 1 minute longer to reach the dark brown color so important in making Louisiana gumbos and stews.
  • The roux will be VERY HOT, but usually the handle on your measuring cup will stay cool enough to touch.
  • When the roux has reached a very dark brown (think a coffee grounds dark brown), remove from microwave and CAREFULLY (remember--the roux is very hot!); add the onion, celery, and bell pepper, a little at a time.
  • Stir and return to microwave.
  • Sauté on high for 2 minutes.
  • You should now have about 3 3/4 cup of roux.
  • If any oil has risen to the top, you can pour this off.
  • Slowly, add enough hot water to bring the roux to the 4 cup mark.
  • Stir and you will have a smooth, dark roux in only 12 minutes!
  • Roux freezes very well and you are ready at any time to put together a delicious gumbo or stew!
