Claudia's Roux

..... as taught to Tina by Lennox, the cook.

Ingredients

1 cup olive oil
1 cup flour

Directions

Heat oil to 500 degrees or until it “moves”.
Add all flour to oil at once and stir like hell, scraping the bottom on the pan, until the mixture turns dark brown.
It will go through three stages: solid, runny and smooth.
