chopped parsley, 1 cup chopped celery Salt and cayenne pepper to taste, 1 cup chopped bell pepper Dash of

gallon stock pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add flour and using a wire whip, stir constantly until dark brown
roux is achieved. When brown, add onions, celery, bell pepper and garlic and saute until vegetables are wilted,
approximately three to five minutes. Add crawfish tails and cook until meat is pink and slightly curled. Stir in tomato
sauce and slowly add crawfish stock stirring constantly until all is incorporated. Bring to a low boil, reduce to
simmer and cook thirty minutes, stirring occasionally. Add green onions and parsley and season to taste using salt
and pepper.
