Classic Poutine Recipe
Ingredients
- Packaged frozen French fries
Gravy:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups beef stock
- Black pepper
If you can’t make gravy, but have a can or jar in your pantry, simple beef/brown gravy works best, but any kind will do
- 2 cups fresh cheese curds
If you can’t get cheese curd, any chunks of your favorite melty cheese will do. But cheese curds make it authentic.
Instructions
- Directions:Cook fries according to package directions.In a saucepan over medium heat, combine butter and flour. Simmer, stirring constantly, until browned, about 15 minutes. Stir in stock and add pepper to taste. Bring gravy to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and keep warm.When fries are done, pour the cheese curds over them (you can also disperse the cheese curds throughout the pile of fries), followed by the warm gravy, and enjoy!(For an extra kick, add crumbled bacon, fried onions, or hot peppers).
