Real Canadian Poutine Recipe

Real Canadian Poutine Recipe

  • 1 (14 ounce) package frozen French fries
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups cheese curds
  1. Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  2. Spread fries in a single layer over prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, about 15 minutes.
  4. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour vigorously. When mixture bubbles, reduce heat to low; cook and stir until the mixture thins, about 2 minutes. Whisk in beef broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until gravy has thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Place fries on a serving plate or in individual bowls. Distribute the cheese curds over the fries; pour hot gravy over the fries and curds. Serve immediately.
