Lynn's Crawdad Gumbo
1 lb crawfish cooked & cleaned
8 oz Canadian bacon cubed small
1/2 lb okra
1 med onion
1 x 14.5 oz whole tomatoes canned
8 oz frozen corn
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 cup fat free half and Half
2 cup water
salt to taste
pepper to taste
Method :
In a large skillet, fry salt pork until browned. Add onion, cook until tender,
stirring often. Add water, okra, corn, tomatoes, and all seasonings, simmer for
15-20 minutes. Add half & half, and crawdads, simmer for 10 minutes.
NOTES : Original recipe called for bacon instead of Canadian bacon and full fat
half and half. Servings weren't specified so I guessed at six.
countervail: to counteract; also, to offset.
