cup flour
Pam

Preparation

1
*Baked roux: Lots of Louisiana recipes start with "First you make a roux. " The traditional roux is a mixture of about equal parts of oil and flour browned to a certain point. A baked roux can substitute nicely in some recipes. To bake a roux, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2
Put some (about 1/3 c.) of flour pie pan or cake pan which has been sprayed with PAM. Bake at 400 degrees stirring frequently until roux is caramel colored and just begins to have a burnt smell. Don't bake it any longer! Store roux in refrigerator . When recipe calls for roux add an equal measure of water to whatever amount of flour is called for in the recipe.
