Instructions

Step 1

Heat a large pot to medium-low heat. Add the flour and stir it constantly until the roux becomes slightly darker. Remove and transfer to a bowl.

Step 2

In the same pot, add the onions, celery, and garlic along with a quarter cup of the vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions soften and the water has evaporated.

Step 3

Add the canned tomatoes, bell pepper and jalapeno. Cook them and stir for another five minutes. Add the liquid aminos, bouillon paste, cajun seasoning, thyme, and bay leaves. Mix well

Step 4

Now add the beans, okra, and vegan sausage rounds and stir well to mix. Add the flour mixture back to the pot and stir. Measure out 2 cups of vegetable broth or water and allow the gumbo to come to a boil over medium-high heat. If the mixture is too thick, add water or broth. Lower the heat to a simmer and let everything cook for another 10 minutes.

Step 5

Add more salt and pepper if needed. Turn off the heat.
