]]> Considered by many to be the unofficial national dish of Canada, poutine is one of those foods that is deeply beloved in one specific place and nearly unknown in the rest of the world. But this french fry cheese curd brown gravy treat is the ultimate comfort food that can be enjoyed even if you don’t live in Canada. Plus, it’s fairly easy to make at home, so you don’t have to go without trying it just because you’re not located in the Great North. So in honor of Canada, here is how you can make your own poutine.

Ingredients

  • Cornstarch
  • Water
  • Butter
  • All-purpose flour
  • Beef broth
  • Chicken broth
  • Pepper
  • Russet potatoes
  • Frying oil
  • Cheese curds

Directions

In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in water. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Add flour, whisking regularly for about five minutes until golden brown.

Add beef and chicken broth and bring to a boil, stirring. Add the cornstarch mixture and simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Heat frying oil in a deep-fryer or wide, large pot to 300 degrees. While it’s heating, cut your potatoes into relatively thick french fry shapes. Cook fries for five to eight minutes at a time, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. This is just the first fry, which will cook the potatoes internally. Remove the cooked fries, raise the oil to 375 degrees, and cook the french fries again to crisp them up. Let them cool on a wire rack over paper towels.

To assemble the poutine, add your fries to a bowl, seasoning with salt. Add the gravy and cheese curds over top. Serve while hot.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of russet or Idaho potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons of oil
  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of vegetable stock
  • 1/2 pound of cheese curds

Recipe

  1. Clean and cut up the potatoes into whatever fry shape you like.
  2. Soak them in a cold bowl of water for as close to an hour as you an which will draw out the starch and help them crisp up better.
  3. After they’ve soaked, drain the potatoes and pat them dry before you put them on baking sheets.
  4. Pour oil over the potatoes and bake the potatoes in a 450 F oven for 40-45 minutes until they’re brown and super crispy.
  5. In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and then whisk in the flour. Cook for 3-5 minutes and then whisk in the stock.
  6. Cook the gravy for 15 minutes until it’s nice and thick.
  7. Put the cheese curds all over the baked fries, pour over the gravy, and if you want, stick it back in the oven for another couple of minutes so the cheese curds start to melt a bit.
  8. Serve and enjoy!
