## Instructions
|
|
|
|
1. Heat the **oil** in a large pot over medium heat.
|
|
Add the **sausage** and cook until browned.
|
|
Remove the sausage to a bowl and refrigerate.
|
|
|
|
1. Add the **onion**, **bell pepper**, **celery**, and **garlic** to the pot.
|
|
Sauté over medium heat until the onions are soft.
|
|
|
|
1. Add the **spices**. Stir and continue to sauté for another minute.
|
|
|
|
1. Add the **beans** and **water**. Cover and bring to a boil.
|
|
|
|
1. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low and boil for one hour, stirring occasionally.
|
|
|
|
1. Smash the beans against the side of the pot with the back of a spoon.
|
|
Continue smashing the beans while simmering uncovered for 30 minutes.
|
|
|
|
1. Once the red beans have thickened,
|
|
add the sausage back to the pot along with the **parsley**.
|
|
Stir to combine.
|
|
|
|
1. Serve hot with rice.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- Makes 9 cups.
|
|
|
|
- Because the rice is cooked separately, and (assuming leftovers) in multiple batches,
|
|
I've omitted it from this recipe.
|
|
I like 1/2 cup (dry) per serving.
