Gluten-Free Poutine
[Photographs: Elizabeth Barbone]
The recipe makes a classic poutine, only gluten-free. To serve your poutine nice and hot, this flow works well:
- Prepare fries up to final frying stage.
- Prepare gravy. Keep warm over low heat. Be sure to whisk occasionally.
- Remove cheese curds from refrigerator.
- Fry french fries.
- Top with prepared gravy and cheese curds.
Ingredient Note:
Gluten-free beef broth can be hard to find. I used Kitchen Basics.

Soak potatoes as directed in recipe. Prepare gravy: Just before frying french fries, prepare gravy. Reserve one tablespoon chicken stock. Set aside. In medium pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add sweet rice flour and whisk to combine. A thick paste will form. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture turns lightly golden brown, about three minutes. Whisking constantly, add remaining chicken stock and all beef broth in a slow and steady stream. Cook until gravy thickens, about four minutes. Combine cornstarch and reserved chicken stock. Whisk with a fork until smooth. Add to gravy. Continue whisking and bring gravy to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Add vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisk gravy occasionally while you prepare the french fries.
