Ingredients
Scale
Fries
- 4 cups frozen fries
Cheese and Eggs
- 1 cup cheese curds
- 4 eggs
Sauce and Seasoning
- 1 cup hollandaise sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook Fries: Cook the frozen fries according to the package instructions until they are crispy and golden brown, providing a crunchy base for the poutine.
- Prepare Hollandaise Sauce: While the fries are cooking, prepare your hollandaise sauce, ensuring it’s smooth and creamy to complement the dish perfectly.
- Poach Eggs: Poach the eggs in simmering water for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, adding a rich texture to the dish.
- Plate Fries: Once crispy, transfer the fries to a serving plate, creating the foundation for the poutine.
- Add Cheese Curds: Sprinkle the cheese curds evenly over the hot fries, allowing them to begin melting slightly from the heat.
- Top with Poached Eggs: Carefully place the poached eggs on top of the cheese-covered fries, maintaining the yolk intact for maximum flavor.
- Drizzle Hollandaise Sauce: Generously drizzle the prepared hollandaise sauce over the entire dish, adding creaminess and richness.
- Season: Finish with a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, enhancing all the flavors harmoniously.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, consider double frying the fries or using an air fryer.
- Use fresh cheese curds for the best melt and flavor in traditional poutine style.
- If you prefer, you can substitute hollandaise sauce with gravy for a more classic poutine experience.
- Poach eggs carefully to keep yolks runny for a luxurious sauce effect when breaking them.
- Leftover hollandaise sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and gently reheated.
