Poutine is one of those comfort dishes for me that I just don't have very often, because frankly it isn't too healthy for you. It seems like the best tasting meals just aren't very good for you. Oh well! If you've never had poutine you are missing out. It is thequintessential Canadian dish. In writing this post, I did some research and it actually originated in Quebec in the 1950s.

So with some leftovers from St. Patrick's Day, I figured why not put an Irish twist on this Canadian classic. The corned beef with the Guinness gravy gives it a great flavor that had Lauren and I coming back for more. Yes I realize this is a week after St. Patrick's Day so if you're already out of leftovers, then just save this for next year! Or you can just make this corned beef poutine whenever you desire. You don't need a holiday to justify this.

What is Poutine?

The original poutine consisted of French fries with cheese curds and topped with a brown gravy. And while there is nothing wrong with that, what makes poutine so great is you can really add whatever you want to it, just as long as it has those 3 standard ingredients. It's also one of those dishes that can be enjoyed as an appetizer or entree.

What Cheese is Used for Poutine?

Authentic Canadian poutine uses white cheddar cheese curds. But if you don't have many options or prefer something besides cheddar cheese curds, you can use what you want.
