This air fryer poutine recipe is only 3 ingredients and it’s a recipe I like to do when I’m feeling super lazy to cook anything. The fries are cooked in the air fryer and the gravy is a packet that you just add water to it and let it thicken over the stove. Of course, you can always make your own homemade gravy.

Ingredients Needed

1 package of frozen french fries (can be any style or cut)

1 1oz packet of gravy mix

1 package of Wisconsin-style cheese curds

How to Make Air Fryer Poutine

Preheat your Air Fryer at 400 degrees.

Place the frozen french fries in the basket and set the timer for 12 minutes.

Use some parchment paper on the bottom for easy clean up.

While the fries are cooking make the gravy according to the directions on the back of the packet. The one I used said to add 1 cup of water plus the packet of gravy mix, and continue stirring it until the gravy is thick.

When the fries are ready, place them on a plate. Then the cheese curds and pour the gravy all over the fries. If you want your cheesecurds to be all gooey and melted place the plate in the microwave for 1 minute.

Enjoy!

What is poutine?

Poutine is a dish served with french fries, cheese curds, and gravy. It originated in Quebec Canada in the late 1950’s.

In America, poutine is sometimes known as Disco Fries.

Poutine is usually a dish served by itself or sometimes you’ll see it at restaurants and it is served with pulled pork or brisket on top of it.

Tips for using Air Fryers

Preheating: Some air fryers require preheating and some do not. Be sure to check your air fryer manual. Mine does not require preheating. If the food ever burns or doesn’t cook properly this could be why the recipe didn’t work for you.

Cooking Times: Please note that all air fryers do not cook the same. Might have to adjust cooking time accordingly. Thank you.

Overcrowding: Do not overcrowd the basket. Some food will not cook properly or all the way through.

Oil: One of the reasons why air fryers are so great is because food doesn’t need a lot of oil. Especially frozen food. Just a small amount is fine or use Cooking Spray
