New Orleans Pork Gumbo image

Gumbo, a thick, stewlike dish popular in New Orleans, includes okra, tomatoes and one or more meats or shellfish. Traditional gumbos start with a dark roux, a mixture of flour and fat, which adds an unmistakable flavor. Reducing the amount of fat in the roux helps trim the calories and total fat in this recipe.
