This is my son's favorite gumbo recipe. He made this when he was cooking at a little neighborhood tavern. He sold out of it every time he made it.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the sausage for tofu. The gumbo was still delicious, and my family loved it.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my gumbo turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have any flavor.
