This is an real creole recipe, very similar to the one I've used with success for years. The bacon fat cooked into the flour makes a 'roux', olive oil doesn't make a roux. I have a jar of browned flour (la farine brulee) that I use with fat for making roux. I know, I'm being picky - it would be just dandy make with olive oil.
I would hot it up for my family but everyone's taste buds are different and you can add, not subtract. A bottle of hot sauce or dried hot peppers can always be on the table for those would wish it spicier. Thanks for sharing this fine recipe.
