-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

1 cup chopped onions

1 teaspoon minced garlic

3 bay leaves

1 1/4 cups sliced carrots

1 cup chopped celery

3/4 cup coarsely chopped red bell peppers

3/4 cup coarsely chopped green bell peppers

2 1/2 teaspoons dried basil

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

2 cups chopped tomatoes -- (canned or fresh)

1 10 oz package frozen okra -- (or 1 can baby corn, drained)

3 cups vegetable broth

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper -- or to taste

1/8 teaspoon ground allspice

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup olive oil

1/3 cup flour

 

In a skillet on medium-high heat, heat oil and butter or margarine and saute

onions for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Transfer to the slow

cooker. Add bay leaves, carrots, celery, peppers, basil, thyme, tomatoes, okra,

vegetable broth, parsley, cayenne, allspice, and salt and pepper. Cover and

cook on low heat for 9 to 10 hours.

 

About 1 hour before serving, heat olive oil on medium-high in a small saucepan

and add flour. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until well-browned, stirring

frequently with a whisk. This will take about 30 minutes; be careful not to

burn. Stir this into slow cooker and allow mixture to thicken for 30 minutes

before serving. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve over rice.
