- Heat the fat or oil in a heavy pot, add the flour and cook, stirring, about 15 to 20 minutes or until the roux is medium brown (the color of peanut butter).
- Add the onion, garlic and green pepper and cook 5 to 10 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the measured liquid with the bay leaf, thyme, salt, peppers and cayenne to taste.
- Add the greens, ham and sausage and mix well.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Discard the bay leaf, and taste and adjust the seasoning before serving, over rice.
