  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
  • ½ green bell pepper
  • 1 cup of green onions, chopped

  • Tony's Cajun seasoning to taste
Instructions
  1. Make the roux. Add 1 cup flour and 1 cup oil to a skillet. Stir until smooth. Keep stirring until it's the color of milk chocolate. Set aside. This is the same roux I use for all Cajun dishes.
  2. Saute' onion, bell pepper, garlic in a skillet.
  3. Add the saute' to a stock pot. Add okra and kale.
  4. Fill stock pot with water and start to simmer.
  5. When the water reduces to about ½ of the stock pot, add the chopped green onions and parsley.
  6. Serve with a scoop of potato salad in the middle of the bowl.
