Preparation


1

Step 1

Slice the potatoes lengthwise, about 1/4 inch thick. Stack the slices and cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick sticks (or cut the potatoes into fries using a french fry cutter). Place in a large bowl filled with cold water and let sit at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours for extra-crispy fries. Drain well and pat dry or spin dry in a salad spinner.

Step 2

Make the gravy: Heat 1 tablespoon (15 mL) vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken and beef stock, ketchup, vinegar, peppercorns, and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the flour and make a roux, stirring until slightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk the stock mixture into the roux and simmer until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Season the gravy with salt and pepper and keep warm.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towels. Heat 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) (or use a deep fryer). Fry the potatoes in small batches until whitish yellow, about 8 minutes. Remove with a strainer and drain on the paper towels. Bring the oil temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) over high heat. Fry the potatoes in batches again until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on fresh paper towels. Salt and pepper the fries while hot. Strain the gravy.

Step 5

Put the fries in shallow dishes; top with the cheese curds and gravy.
