List of Ingredients




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

Recipe



Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep heavy skillet to 365 degrees. 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 curds over them. Ladle gravy over the fries and cheese, and serve immediately.

Variations:
Add cut up cooked chicken or hamburger.
Use shredded mozzarella cheese in place of the cheese curds.
Substitute marinara for the gravy.
Substitute BBQ sauce for the gravy.

Makes 4 servings.

This is a French-Canadian staple that is ideal for any get-together. Americans will probably need to add chicken or hamburger to the recipe, the same way they added a fourth down to football.
