Instructions:
Step 1
Preheat your oven and cook the frozen french fries according to the package instructions until they are crispy and golden brown.
Step 2
While the fries are cooking, heat the beef or chicken gravy in a saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally to ensure it's heated evenly. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 3
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly for a minute or two.
Step 4
Place a generous amount of cheese curds on top of the hot fries. The heat from the fries will start to melt the curds.
Step 5
Pour the hot gravy over the cheese curds and fries. The gravy should be hot enough to further melt the cheese curds but not scorching.
Step 6
Serve the poutine immediately while it's hot. The cheese curds should be slightly melted, creating a gooey.
