Poutine is a classic Canadian dish, originating in Quebec. It consists of a bed of french fries covered with a sauce or gravy and topped with cheese curds. In this rustic homemade version, the potatoes are cut into wedges and tossed with coconut oil, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper before being baked to golden brown crispy perfection. The sauce for this poutine features chipotle and paprika for a slight smoky flavor. To serve, spread the sauce over the wedge fries and top with cheese curds.

These potatoes are popping with great flavor. We enjoyed the combination of spices with the heat of the chipotle and the curds gave a mild, creamy contrast. I added ¼ cup of tomato sauce to the paste before mixing it in.
