I've had some folks request the recipe for New Orleans Italian Red
Gravy. This is basically like a tomato-based spaghetti sauce, but is
often served over baked fish or chicken. It is also good as the base
for oyster or shrimp spaghetti (in which case you would just add raw
oysters or shrimp to the hot sauce, turn off the flame, cover and let
sit for 10 minutes; then serve on cooked spaghetti).
New Orleans Italian Red Gravy -- From Chef Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen,
============================= by Paul Prudhomme. NY: Wm. Morrow & Co, 1984
ISBN 0-6808-02847-0
Makes about 6 cups. Serve this tomato gravy over pastas, chicken, or fish.
1/2 cup olive oil
10 cloves garlic, sliced in half lengthwise [I increase this by 5 more cloves]
3 bay leaves [I add 5]
1 cup finely chopped onions [I just use 1 medium onion, chopped]
3 cups basic chicken stock [vegan folks can just use water or a flavorful
vegetable broth]
3 cups canned tomato sauce [I use 1 large can]
1 tablespoon minced garlic [I use more, about double this amount]
2 teaspoons salt [I omit]
1 teaspoon ground red pepper, preferable cayenne [I use 1 tablespoon ;-) ]
1 teaspoon dried sweet basil leaves [try using fresh herbs if available]
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves [try using fresh herbs if available]
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Place the olive oil, garlic cloves, and 2 of the bay leaves in a
2-quart saucepan over medium heat; brown garlic on both sides, about 2
to 3 minutes, stirring often. Remove garlic from pan. Add the onions
to the pan and saute until onion edges start to brown, about 6 to 8
minutes, stirring frequently. Add the remaining bay leaf and all other
ingredients. Bring to a simmer; reduce heat if necessary to maintain a
simmer, and cook about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay
leaves before serving.
