Quick and Easy Poutine
Poutine is only as good as its three components—fries, cheese curds, and brown gravy.

Ingredients
- 2 large potatoes, cut into fries
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups beef or chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 1 cup cheese curds
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Directions
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in beef and chicken stocks in a steady stream. Stir in fish sauce and soy sauce, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until reduced to 2 cups, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in vinegar, and season with salt.
