Maque Choux

Maque choux is a traditional Southern Louisiana dish believed to have Creole and Native American roots. It’s made by sautéing a variety of vegetables, mainly corn, tomatoes, bell pepper, and onion. It also includes andouille, a smoked pork sausage brought to Louisiana by French immigrants. The blending of Louisiana natives with French immigrants, as well as other ethnic immigrant groups, created America’s Creole and Cajun culture.
