About the Recipe
Ingredients
4 cups frozen French fries
2 cups cheese curds
1 1/2 cups chopped kimchi, drained
1/4 cup chopped green onions, for garnish
For the gravy:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef or vegetable broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
Step 1
Cook the frozen French fries according to the package instructions, ensuring they are crispy and golden brown.
Step 2
While the fries are cooking, prepare the gravy. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour, whisking constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Step 3
Gradually pour in the beef or vegetable broth, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Add the soy sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder, and continue whisking until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency.
Step 4
Allow the gravy to come to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Assemble the poutine: Spread the cooked French fries on a serving platter or individual plates. Evenly distribute the cheese curds over the fries, followed by the chopped kimchi.
Step 6
Pour the hot gravy over the fries, cheese curds, and kimchi, ensuring everything is well coated. Garnish with chopped green onions.
Step 7
Serve the Kimchi Poutine immediately and enjoy this delicious fusion of flavors!
