Truffle Fries

Madeira Cream Sauce

Cheese Curds

Method

Truffle Fries

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes, then cut them into thin fries.

  2. 2

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat oil for frying. Once hot, carefully add the fries in batches and fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Season the Fries

    While still hot, drizzle the fries with truffle oil, and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Toss to coat evenly.

Lobster

  1. 4

    Heat the Lobster

    In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped lobster meat and sauté for 3-4 minutes until heated through. Set aside.

Madeira Cream Sauce

  1. 5

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a saucepan, melt a small amount of butter over medium heat. Add the minced shallot and garlic, cooking until softened, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 6

    Add Cream and Madeira

    Pour in the heavy cream and Madeira wine, bring to a simmer. Season with salt and black pepper. Reduce the sauce slightly, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until thickened.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine the Components

    On a serving plate, layer the truffle fries, followed by the sautéed lobster meat, and finally the cheese curds.

  2. 8

    Drizzle with Sauce

    Generously drizzle the Madeira cream sauce over the top of the poutine. Serve immediately while hot.
