Steps:
- Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a wide casserole or big frying pan and fry the chicken for a few mins to brown. Tip out onto a plate. Add the onion to the pan with 1 tbsp more oil and fry for 5 mins until almost softened. Add the celery and fry for another 2 mins, then tip out to join the chicken. Add the remaining oil, bay leaves and flour to the pan and cook into a paste. Carry on cooking, stirring constantly (with a splash of water if you need), until golden brown, then stir in the spices for 2 mins.
- Gradually stir in the stock until smooth and saucy. Return the chicken and veg to the pan, along with the peppers, cover and simmer gently for 15 mins. Stir in the ham, cover and simmer gently for 10 mins more. Check for seasoning, then serve, sprinkled with the spring onions mixed with the chopped parsley.

CAJUN CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
This is a Cajun-style gumbo made with a seasoned roux, a classic from the bayous of south Louisiana. I revised the recipe after many, many trials. Serve it hot over cooked rice or with potato salad.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. When hot, whisk in flour. Continue whisking until the roux has cooked to the color of chocolate milk, 8 to 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn the roux. If you see black specks in the mixture, start over.
- Stir onion, bell pepper, celery, and sausage into the roux; cook 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook another 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and Creole seasoning; blend thoroughly. Pour in the chicken broth and add the bay leaf. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Stir in the chicken, and simmer 1 hour more. Skim off any foam that floats to the top during the last hour.

CAJUN CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE GUMBO
Some people think that New Orleans cuisine is Cajun cuisine. It isn't. It's Creole cuisine, where most sauces and gravies are prepared with tomato. To delight in true Cajun cuisine, one must travel west of New Orleans into Acadiana, where, in my opinion, the food is much better! Just be sure that you like spicy because most of it is highly seasoned. My mother taught me how to make Gumbo. I usually make enough to freeze in portions so that I'll always have some on hand. Potato salad is traditionally served as a side dish.....oh, and of course, some good, crusty, garlic french bread to sop up the juice. :)

Steps:
- Brown chicken thighs and sausage in a cast iron dutch oven. If you don't have a cast iron dutch oven, just be sure to use a heavy pot, such as a Magnalite or something similar. Remove from pot and let cool.
- Add oil to the pot. With wire whisk, blend in flour. Continue stirring constantly over medium to medium-high heat until flour is the color of chocolate syrup. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CONSTANTLY STIR THIS! If the roux burns, there's no fixing it. You'll have to start over, completely. This step will take a while to achieve the chocolate color and is the most time-consuming part of the recipe. Once the flour has browned to this point, quickly add onions, bell pepper, and celery. Cook until onions are transparent. Add enough water or chicken broth to fill the pot about half way. Simmer.
- Meanwhile, debone chicken. Add sausage to the pot.
- Add minced garlic, salt, and cayenne.
- Let simmer for about an hour. In the last 20 minutes, add deboned chicken. If needed, add enough water or broth to cover the chicken.
- With a large spoon, skim as much fat as possible from the top.
- Serve in a soup plate, over hot cooked rice.
- Sprinkle green onions, parsley, and file in the bowls.
- MMMMMMMMMM -- good stuff!

CHICKEN & SAUSAGE CAJUN GUMBO
Gumbo in our family is our "everyday" soup. Matter of fact it is the only soup I recall having when I was growing up. Cajun gumbo's contain Okra, matter of fact Okra is the definition of gumbo. It thickens the soup and adds some great flavor. My Cajun family makes gumbo for holidays and celebrations as well as for our...

Steps:
- 1. To Make Roux: In a microwave proof bowl combine cooking oil and flour to make a paste. Microwave for 5 minutes and stir. Do this 3 or 4 times until mixture is the color of dark chocolate (do not burn or it will be bitter) Set aside while you are making the gumbo
- 2. In a large stock pot add onions, bell pepper, celery, garlic and parsley. Stir in 1 gallon of water and bring to a boil.
- 3. Stir in roux mixture until it is dissolved. Add tomato sauce, salt, black pepper and red pepper. Drop in okra (optional), sausage and chicken and bring to a boil. Simmer on medium until chicken is thoroughly cooked, about 40 minutes. When gumbo is cooked, turn off the burner and add Gumbo File', this will add flavor and thicken the gumbo.
- 4. Serve over cooked white rice.
REAL CAJUN GUMBO (FROM A LOUISIANAIAN)
All the gumbos you find that have tomatoes or okra are not cajun. That is creole. These are two completely different cultures. Cajun is a simple, cheap, tasty, country, low swamp land culture. Creole, is a higher class, city folk, type of culture that requires more expensive and extensive ingredients. Do not use more andouille than the recipe calls for, or I promise you will regret it! Please do not season with hot sauce on your plate, it is rude. For cheap, tasty andouille, order from the original makers of cajun andouille at www.cajunsausage.com.
