Poutine Latkes

I do it for the gravy. I like everything smothered in sauce or gravy which is why I love poutine. Poutine is a Canadian dish that features french fries with cheese curds (you can use chopped fresh mozzarella instead) topped with a thick layer of gravy. It’s got carbs and gravy. Can I get an amen? I decided to swap the fries with some crispy potato latkes to make poutine latkes!

Think of latkes like a plate of french fries or a baked potato. What do you like to eat those with? Top your latke with that instead!

Add these poutine latkes to your list of latkes you NEED to eat this Hanukkah! For more fun ways to eat latkes check out these 8 EPIC latke recipes HERE.
