A Makeshift Gumbo.
Gumbo is a stew or soup originating in Louisiana which is popular across the Gulf Coast of the United States and into the U.S. South. It consists primarily of a strong stock, meat and/or shellfish, a thickener, and the vegetable "holy trinity" of celery, bell peppers, and onion. The soup is traditionally served over rice. A traditional lenten variety called gumbo z'herbes (from the French gumbo aux herbes), essentially a gumbo of smothered greens thickened with roux, also exists.Now, my Makeshift Gumbo doesn't really have any vegetables, though the rice did originally have some frozen veggies mixed right in.
Makeshift Gumbo Recipe
2/3 Cup to 1 Cup of Leftover Rice (whatever it be, white rice, mexican rice, whatever)
1~2 Leftover Smoked Sausages
1 Teaspoon of Soysauce
A few drops of your favorite flavor additives (mine was Roasted Sesame Seed Oil)
Leftover Veggies (if wanted)
and
About 1 Teaspoon of Vegetable Oil
In order to make it, its a simple deal; Just cut up the Smoked Sausage to your desired size, add in the rice, soysauce, and flavor additives before adding in the vegetable oil. Then depending on your microwave, you put it on medium power (or high, I have a quick minute button on mine) for a minute to a minute and a half.
Stir, let it cool and enjoy!
