For the Scrambled Eggs
For Assembly

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheets
  • Stainless steel or heatproof glass bowl
  • Pot
  • Nonstick pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425˚F.
  2. Spread the tater tots and French fries in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tots and fries are browned and crisp.
  3. For the hollandaise sauce: Place the egg yolks and lemon juice into a stainless steel or heatproof glass bowl and whisk until the mixture doubles in volume. Place this bowl over a pot with simmering water, ensuring the water does not touch the bottom of your bowl, and begin whisking. While whisking, slowly add the melted butter in a steady stream until it is fully incorporated and the hollandaise is thick and smooth. Add cayenne pepper and season with salt and pepper. Remove the bowl from the heat, cover the surface directly with plastic wrap, and set aside.
  4. For the scrambled eggs: Place a nonstick pan over medium to medium-low heat and melt the butter. Add the eggs and begin stirring with a rubber spatula. Continue stirring until small curds form and the eggs just set. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
  5. To assemble: Toss together the baked tots, fries, scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, crumbled sausage, and cheese curds. Spread this mixture onto a baking sheet. Place the pan under the broiler for 1 minute, or until the cheese curds melt.
  6. Remove the poutine from the broiler, drizzle with the hollandaise sauce, and finish with a sprinkle of sliced green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes

This recipe is naturally gluten-free because it uses potatoes for the base instead of traditional flour-based gravy.
