OMG this 5 am homemade Poutine with special butter-cream-chicken broth gravy party is the fattest thing ever!
I don't think we have the vid shared here already, will look that up. I watched "No I don't think so"s recap.
Especially on the measurements being eyeballed, the "splash" of cream, the fries being bathed in an oil bath before being fried... everything.
Okay, so it was from this nearly 3 hours long stream
START THE MORNING WITH ME! :-)
She encouraged the viewers to try the
Easy Gravy Recipe with Cream and Ketchup for themselves.
Here it is, in 14 easy to follow steps. It consists of
1. a chunk of butter (heat up and let melt while fetching flour, onion powder and water jug)
2. She explains, that she is making a "rue" (sp?). Eyeball a couple of tablespoons of white flour (I estimate this to be 4 or 5 TB, maybe)
3. Stir that, let it cook a bit to get rid of that raw flavor, but not for too long anyways. Add 1 1/2 chicken bouillon cubes
4. Add some water and stir
5. Like that:
6. Let it boil up, a little bit, turn it down a bit, add more water
7. And now for the special ingredient, it's a splash of cream, splashing generously for approximately 3 seconds
8. Stir more and add more water
9. The gravy looks pale now, because of the cream. Add more water.
10. Now add ketchup! Squeeze two times. You can use tomato, if you don't want the - sugar in it.
Like, when you're diabetic or something.
11. Add some pepper and a generous amount of onion powder.
12. Stir some more. The ketchup is gonna turn the gravy like a bit of an orange color.
Akshually like Lou Pizzeria, their gravy is bright orange. And she always wonders, how they get it like that.
They probably use - tomato.
13. Let that cook for a bit. Put a lid on the pot.
14. Lovingly check in on it after a few moments, stir again and find out, that it's pretty thick!
Put down the heat and let it sit, while you bathe your fries slowly in lukewarm sunflower oil for the poutine and fetch the necessary amounts of grated cheese to go with it.
And a pickle. Most importantly, a pickle. a) for health reasons and b) because it tastes nice.
Also shows, that you're putting in some effort.
You know?
