This looks absolutely amazing! I live in Montreal and I am a huge poutine fan (who isn’t?), making it with sweet potato fries is such a good idea if I could find it in a restaurant I would definitely order it over classic poutine. Now if only food photos could turn into real food…

Thanks for the link-love, Marc, and for the very generous compliment! I’d almost forgotten about poutine. It’s been too long! And it’s the perfect pregnancy food – sweet, cheesy, gravy-y all in one. I found a new source for local, raw milk cheese curds that I might have to try (even though pregnant ladies aren’t supposed to eat cheese from unpasteurized milk, I think heating it makes it safe).

I wonder if you could use Okinawan purple yam, or if it’d be too starchy? That’d be one psychedelic poutine.

I’ve never had poutine (and have to admit never even heard of it before) yes I need to get out more often LOL!
I’m loving the sweet potatoes in this.

even though it’s a million degrees outside where we are, this still looks like something I’d devour right about now.

Yessss! I live in Montreal, and was actually terrified of poutine when I first moved here. I was sure I would have a heart attack within a week of eating this stuff. However, poutine is an institution in this city, and I have finally succumbed to it’s pure hedonistic fabulousness. I love sweet potatoes much more than the other kind, so this sounds like a safe bet!

Though we’ve never had poutine, we’ve heard it is oh so good. Sweet potatoes are what make this sound even better.

Your poutine seems the perfect Sunday brunch companion after a fun Saturday night!

Oh my. Poutine is a fabulous, fabulous thing. I have always thought it strange that in the US it seems chili fries are common, or cheese fries, but not gravy with fries (or at least, not as common as it is in Canada). Photos and recipes like yours will surely change that!

(PS. I was born in Montreal, so I choose to think this a personal shout out.)
