Description
A twist on the classic Canadian food sensation, Poutine, using leftover turkey, French fries, cheese curds and gravy!
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 Cups of Leftover Turkey, shredded or chopped
- 4 Cups of French fries (homemade or frozen)
- 2 Cups of Leftover Stuffing
- 2 Cups of Cheese curds (white cheddar or cheese of your choice)
- 2 Cups of Leftover Gravy
- 1 Cup of Leftover Cranberry Sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking oil for frying (for fresh French Fries)
Instructions
- Prepare the French Fries: If you’re using frozen french fries, follow the package instructions to bake or fry them until they are crispy and golden. If making homemade fries, cut potatoes into your desired shape, fry them until crispy, and drain on paper towels. Season with salt while they’re still hot.
- Warm the Leftover Turkey: In a skillet over medium heat, add the leftover turkey and warm it up. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a bit of gravy to keep the turkey moist.
- Warm the Gravy: Heat the leftover gravy in a saucepan over low heat. If it’s too thick, you can add a little water to reach your desired consistency.
- Assemble the Poutine: On each serving plate, start with a generous portion of crispy french fries. Sprinkle a handful of cheese curds over the hot fries, allowing them to slightly melt.
- Add the Turkey: Spoon the warmed turkey over the cheese curds. Add more cheese!
- Pour the Gravy: Drizzle the hot gravy over the turkey and stuffing. The heat from the gravy will help melt the cheese curds further.
- Serve Immediately: Serve your turkey poutine hot.
