01 Step

03 Step

Bring the gumbo to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the gumbo has thickened, about 15-20 minutes.
05 Step
Recipe View 8 mins Stir in the cooked turkey and hot pepper sauce. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes, or until the turkey is heated through. Discard the bay leaf before serving.
