Crispy French fries topped with fresh cheese curds and smothered in a thick, hot brown gravy.

Poutine

The story behind

Originating in Quebec during the 1950s, Poutine is the ultimate Canadian comfort food. The secret lies in the balance: perfectly golden fries, 'squeaky' cheese curds, and a gravy hot enough to just slightly melt the cheese. Presented in a red checkered basket on a rustic wooden surface, it maintains a professional and clean aesthetic for your digital cookbook.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Fry the potatoes in hot oil until they are deep golden brown and crispy.
  2. 2
    Drain excess oil and place the fries in a bowl or serving basket.
  3. 3
    Distribute the cheese curds generously over the hot fries.
  4. 4
    Pour the piping hot brown gravy over the cheese and fries so it starts to melt slightly.
  5. 5
    Serve immediately to maintain the crispiness of the fries.
