This is my first time having Gumbo. Even though I believe I cooked roux a little too much, it was good. It will probably become something I cook once a year.

I looked it up apparently it's called "okra" in english-speaking countries. It's a small vegetable, crunchy and slimy. Really good stuff. Widespread in most african cuisines

Gumbo/okra is originally the basis for the stew, I believe. It brings the thickness (it has a slimy interior that has a similar effect as pig feet).
