Ingredients

Red Wine Mushroom Sauce

2 tbsp (30 ml) cornstarch
1 can (10 oz/284 ml) concentrated beef broth
1/2 cup (125 ml) water
1/2 lb (225 g) white mushrooms, quartered
3 tbsp butter
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup (250 ml) red wine
1/2 oz (15 g) dried morel mushrooms, coarsely chopped

Poutine

4 eggs, at room temperature
2.2 lb (1 kg) frozen French fries
1 cup (175 g) cheese curds or diced cheddar
2 tbsp chives, chopped
Canola oil, for frying

Preparation

Red Wine Mushroom Sauce

In a bowl, combine the cornstarch, broth and water until smooth.
In a large skillet over high heat, brown the white mushrooms in the butter. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Deglaze with the wine and let reduce for 1 minute. Add the broth mixture and morel mushrooms. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Season with pepper.

Poutine

Using a spoon, gently drop the eggs into a pot of simmering water. Cook for 6 minutes. Rinse under cold running water. Carefully peel the eggs and set aside.
Preheat the oil in a deep fryer to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
Fry half of the French fries at a time until crisp. Drain on the paper towels and keep warm.
Divide the fries among four bowls and top with the cheese curds, sauce and chives. Place a soft-boiled egg on top of each poutine and carefully cut in half.
