- Cook cleaned fish in boiling, salted water till it breaks apart with a fork (only takes a few minutes). Remove fish, debone, cut into chunks and reserve stock ( fillets are a lot less trouble). Melt butter in skillet; add flour and stir until lightly browned. Don't get in a hurry as a good roux is the key to good gumbo. Don't burn the roux. Mix everything together except seafood, in a post with stock and simmer about an hour. Add seafood and simmer 30-45 minutes. Serve over rice with a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
