No one will miss the meat in this satisfying stew (it's also vegan!). It starts with a roux and the holy trinity of onion, celery, and bell pepper, then calls for both fresh ingredients (okra and yellow squash) and canned (tomatoes and black-eyed peas).

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons safflower oil
2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
1 small onion, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (1 1/2 cups)
2 celery stalks, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (1 cup)
1 orange or red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 cup)
Kosher salt
1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
1 1/2 teaspoons Creole seasoning, such as Tony Chachere's
4 cups vegetable broth
8 ounces okra, cut into 1/4-inch rounds (2 cups)
1 yellow squash, quartered lengthwise and chopped (2 cups)
1 can (14 ounces) black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
Steamed white rice and sliced scallions, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, whisk together oil and flour to combine. Cook over medium heat, whisking frequently, until mixture is the color of butterscotch, about 10 minutes.
  • Add onion, celery, and bell pepper. Season with salt and cook, stirring, until vegetables soften, about 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and Creole seasoning; cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Stir in broth, okra, squash, and peas. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. Serve over rice, sprinkled with scallions.
