Canadian poutine

French fries topped with meat gravy, cheese and a thickened broth sauce. Serves 4; preparation and cooking times are practical estimates.

This poutine combines fries with hot gravy and cheese. The traditional version usually uses fresh cheese curds; mozzarella is used here as an alternative. Assemble just before serving so the fries keep more of their texture.
