When I made the recipe from food network, it came out thick like beef stew(due to 3 to 2 ratio. So I found the recipe on emerils.com and after I made the rue and put all the vegetables in, there was no liquid in the pot to allow it to simmer for an hour. The only thing that I thought to do was to add water. The recipe doesn't say to do so, but how else is it suppose to turn out to look like the picture?!
