Cooking Instructions
Chop the onion, pepper, and celery fairly fine?feel free to use a food processor for this; I did! Crush the garlic, too.
In a big saucepan with a heavy bottom over medium heat, heat the olive oil and add the chopped vegetables.
Saute them until everything is soft.
Now stir in everything else, turn the heat down, and let the whole thing simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
Spoon over pork?preferably pork you've rubbed with Cajun Seasoning (page 484) and mopped with Cajun Rib Mop
