Method
Poutine Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the French Fries
Begin by heating vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- 2
Fry the Potatoes
While the oil is heating, cut the potatoes into thick fries. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the fries in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- 3
Prepare the Gravy
In a saucepan, heat the beef or chicken gravy over medium heat until it is hot and simmering. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- 4
Assemble the Poutine
On a plate or in a bowl, place a generous portion of hot fries. Sprinkle the cheese curds evenly over the fries, and then pour the hot gravy over the top, allowing the cheese curds to melt slightly.
- 5
Serve Immediately
Serve the poutine hot, and enjoy your classic Quebec dish!
