This is what passes for poutine in America (as seen in the SanFrancisco airport).

    I would honestly want to try poutine, but not being near canada makes getting good stuff… well, impossible. If anyone has a recipe for authentic poutine, I would love to give it a try. Looking recipes up online is a hit or miss scenario since I have no real way of knowing if something is real or a not-very-good take on something.

      Don’t get to stressed out about ingredients, as most are pretty common. You’ll want fries, brown gravy, and cheese curds. We made poutine at home for Canada Day and added green onions, sauteed mushrooms, and bacon, too. I’m lazy and grabbed frozen fries and packets of gravy mix, and it turned out delicious. The hardest ingredient to find is typically the cheese curds, but a lot of grocery stores will carry those over in the deli/fancy cheese area, so check there. In a pinch, I’ll cut mozzarella string cheeses into chunks, as that’s close-ish. Good luck!
