MEXICAN POUTINE WITH SMOKED CHEDDAR CHILE QUESO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to the temperature dictated by the package direction for the French fries.
• While oven is heating: in a medium saucepan, add all the ingredients for the queso and heat, stirring very often so as not to scorch on the bottom, over medium heat until cheese is melted. Set aside.
• At the same time, cook the chorizo in a large skillet breaking up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain fat.
• Cook French fries according to package directions.
• In a bowl, combine the chorizo and Huevos Ranchero Sauce.
• To assemble: layer French fries, chorizo-sauce mixture, queso, jalapeno, cilantro, queso fresco, and green onion.

REAL POUTINE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep heavy skillet to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). While the oil is heating, you can begin to warm your gravy.
• Place the fries into the hot oil, and cook until light brown, about 5 minutes. Make the fries in batches if necessary to allow them room to move a little in the oil. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
• Place the fries on a serving platter, and sprinkle the cheese over them. Ladle gravy over the fries and cheese, and serve immediately.
