Authentic Canadian Poutine (takes kinda long but worth it)
Ingredients
Poutine Gravy:
3 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp water
6 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour
20 oz beef broth
10 oz chicken broth
Pepper, to taste
For Deep Fried Fries:
2 lbs Russet potatoes, (3-4 medium potatoes)
Peanut or other frying oil
Toppings:
1 - 1 1/2 cups white cheddar cheese curds, (Or torn chunks of mozzarella cheese would be the closest substitution)
Instructions
Prepare the gravy: In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the water and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook, stirring regularly, for about 5 minutes, until the mixture turns golden brown.
Add the beef and chicken broth and bring to a boil, stirring with a whisk. Stir in about HALF the cornstarch mixture and simmer for a minute or so. If you'd like your gravy thicker, add a more of the cornstarch mixture, in small increments, as needed, to thicken. Season with pepper. Taste and add additional salt, if necessary, to taste. Make ahead and re-warm or keep warm until your fries are ready.
For Deep-Fried Fries: Prepare your potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch thick sticks. Place into a large bowl and cover completely with cold water. Allow to stand at least one hour or several hours. When ready to cook, heat your oil in your deep fryer or large, wide, heavy cooking pot to 300° F.
Remove the potatoes from the water and place onto a sheet of paper towel. Blot to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
Add your fries to the 300°F oil and cook for 5-8 minutes, just until potatoes are starting to cook but are not yet browned. Remove potatoes from oil and scatter on a wire rack. Increase oil temperature to 375°F Once oil is heated to that temperature, return the potatoes to the fryer and cook until potatoes are golden brown. Remove to a paper towel-lined bowl.
To Prepare Poutine: Add your fried or baked fries to a large, clean bowl. Season lightly with salt while still warm. Add a ladle of hot poutine gravy to the bowl and using tongs, toss the fries in the gravy. Add more gravy, as needed to mostly coat the fries.
Add the cheese curds and toss with the hot fries and gravy. Serve with freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.

Garnalenpannetje (Shrimp-pan)
this is a family recipe so measurements arent exact, but I'll try and be as clear as I can
► ingredients:
○ north sea gray shrimp, 400-500 grams
○ fresh parsley, ~30 grams (frozen also works, but fresh tastes better)
○ 2-3 eggs
○ salted butter
○ plain cornflakes
○ flour
○ milk
○ olive oil (optional)
○ lemon juice (optional)
► preparation
♦ preheat the oven to 180°C (I dont speak burgers/ baseball field so Im not doing the conversion)
♦ start by making a thick bechamel sauce, so heat either butter or olive oil in a pot, add flower until you get a nice crumbly roux, and
then add milk (I really shouldnt have to explain bechamel sauce should I?)
spice to your liking with salt, pepper and nutmeg; lemon juice is optional (I do this because I like it)
♦ hard-boil the eggs, peel them, and squish them into a chunky puree of sorts (use a fork or a potato masher, both work fine)
♦ mince the parsley (skip this step if you buy your parsley pre-minced)
♦ mix the parsley, shrimp, and eggs into the bechamel sauce, and pour into an oven dish
♦ crush the cornflakes (the easiest way that Ive found is to pour them into a ziplock bag and repeatedly hit it with a ladle until you get a still chunky crumble)
♦ melt the butter in the microwave
♦ mix the molten butter with the crushed cornflakes, and spread overtop the mixture in the oven dish
♦ place in the oven for 30 minutes
Enjoy your meal!
I'll do this tonight, I have bought shrimp recently
not northern hemisphere shrimp, but I gotta work with what I have
it tasted okay after some minor changes to fit what I had home, so I'll blame it on my mediocrity
