Fries, cheese and gravy - I could get into that!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine

Poutine Recipe

• 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
• 1 (10.25 ounce) can beef gravy
• 5 medium potatoes, cut into fries
• 2 cups cheese curds

DIRECTIONS:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep heavy skillet to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). While the oil is heating, you can begin to warm your gravy.
• Place the fries into the hot oil, and cook until light brown, about 5 minutes. Make the fries in batches if necessary to allow them room to move a little in the oil. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
• Place the fries on a serving platter, and sprinkle the cheese over them. Ladle gravy over the fries and cheese, and serve immediately.

my dearest rochard - New York Fries serves a pretty nice version of this - I hope they have it in the USA. its an awesome dish, and I travelled up to quebec many times just to have an original taste every now and then.

one thing is that I battle down here with the actual way of saying it.

canada - (poo - teen)
quebec - (poo - t - sin)

same as the province is actually named in sound - (k - beck) NOT (qw - beck)

remember sitting at a drive thru fighting with someone on that issue

Rob, you always manage to crack me up.

pout - sin. lol so true. as a resident of la belle province, thank you for clarifying that its kebec and not kwebec. its drives me nuts.

does the fact that my car hasn't started since tuesday 'cause of the deep freeze; is stuck behind a snow bank, on the wrong side of the street, which i have to move before the snow plows go by tonight constitute as being canadian? fuck ya!

what was that about being canadians being pussies?
