Andrew's Canadian Poutine — The Write to Cook

May 21 Andrew's Canadian Poutine

For my week on the Write to Cook, I made poutine because it's a Canadian traditional food. It is french fries with cheese and gravy. I have it all the time when I go to Canada and I also make it a lot at my house. I wanted to share this Canadian recipes with my fellow chefs. Even though I make this all the time I never get tired of it. The french fries did not turn out as we expected but the meal was still amazing. Now that I am in this club I am making more food at home.

Poutine Recipe

Fresh Cut Potatoes

1-2 packages of Chicken or Turkey Gravy

Shredded cheddar cheese or cheese curds if available

Method:

Cut potatoes into fries and soak in cold water for an hour

Grate cheese

When fries are cooked, sprinkle with cheese, add gravy and enjoy!

I am in grade seven or M2. I am a 13-year- old boy. I love to travel, play hockey, cook, and also play soccer. I like most types of food except for some vegetables. My favorite thing to cook is pasta. In the summer I go to Canada where I have a cottage. I wake board, water ski and knee board at my cottage which is right next to a lake. In the winter I sometimes go to Canada and play with my cousins in the snow. These are just a few fact about me.
