US
Metric
- 1 L vegetable oil for deep frying
- 1 can (290 g) of poutine sauce (French: mélange à sauce poutine) or gravy
- 5 medium potatoes
- 2 cups fresh cheddar cheese curds or mozzarella
Make it lactose-friendly
- 2 cups fresh cheddar cheese curds or mozzarella → lactose-free or aged hard cheese (naturally lower lactose)
Steps
- Slice potatoes into finger-width fries and rinse them well to remove any dirt.
- Begin warming gravy, keep the temperature low enough for a slow heating.
- Heat oil to 185°C (365°F).
- Cook sliced potatoes in the oil for about 5 minutes.
- Following a first frying to cook the potatoes, they are often removed and then fried again for about 1 minute to crisp the outside.
- Remove the fries from the oil; optionally place them on a paper towel mat to absorb excess oil.
- Move the fries to a serving dish and put room-temperature cheese curds over the fries.
- Pour the gravy over the top; the dish should be served before the cheese curds start to melt.
