Ingredients

    2 tablespoons canola oil
    2 pounds okra, sliced

    .5 cup canola oil
    .5 cup all-purpose flour

    1 package (13.4 oz) vegan Italian sausage, sliced
    1 package (14 oz) extra firm tofu, cubed

    2 (14.2 oz) cans diced tomatoes (undrained)
    1 green bell pepper, chopped
    2 stalks celery, chopped
    4 cloves garlic, minced
    1 large onion, chopped

    1 bay leaf
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 teaspoon dried basil
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 teaspoon old bay seasoning

    .5 teaspoon file powder

Directions

1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy skillet over medium heat. Add okra and cook until no longer sticky, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes; set aside.
2. Stir flour and remaining 1/2 cup oil in heavy large Dutch oven. Cook over medium heat until deep golden brown, stirring frequently, about 6 minutes.
3. Add 4 cups water, and all other ingredients except file. Cover partially and simmer until thickened, about 1 1/2 hours.
4. Add file and stir. Do not boil. (Boiling will make liquid in the gumbo stringy and unappetizing.)

Serve with rice if desired.
