Recipe: Kimchi poutine
How to Make:
- Place potatoes in a large bowl of cold water (this stops potatoes oxidising and removes the starch).
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook flour, stirring, for 30 seconds. Slowly stir in stock until combined and cook until mixture boils and thickens. Add kimchi and soy sauce and cook until hot.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat until oil reaches 180C or a piece of bread sizzles on contact. Drain potatoes and pat dry with paper towel (or use a salad spinner). Deep-fry potatoes for 5-8 minutes or until golden and crunchy. Drain on paper towel.
- Divide fries immediately between 4 plates and top with cheese. Pour over piping hot kimchi gravy and sprinkle with onion and sesame seeds.
