Ingredients
French Fries
- 2 medium Potatoes about 1/2 lb of potato per portion
- 4 cups Canola oil
- 1 cup White cheddar cheese shredded
Dressing
- 1/4 TBSP Creole mustard
- 1/4 TBSP Honey
- 1/2 TBSP Red wine vinegar
- 1/4 tsp Hot sauce
- 1/4 TBSP Scallions chopped
- 1/4 tsp Dried parsley
- 2 TBSP Extra-virgin olive oil
Seasoning
- Salt
- Black pepper
Salad
- 2 cups Arugula
- 1/4 cup Gold raisins
- 1/4 cup Pecans
- ¼ cup Pickled onions
Gravy
- 1 tsp Butter
- 6 oz Ground sausage
- 1 TBSP All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 TBSP Fresh parsley chopped
Eggs
- 1 TBSP Butter
- 2 Eggs
Cucumber Water
- 24 oz Water
- 8 slices Cucumber
- Ice cubes for serving
Instructions
- Prep the Potatoes: Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick sticks. Place into a large bowl and cover completely with cold water for 20 minutes (see note). Drain well and pat dry with a towel.
- Make the dressing: Place the ingredients in a large bowl and set aside.
- For the Gravy: Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Brown the sausage, breaking it up into smaller pieces as it cooks. Stir in the flour and cook while stirring for 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and parsley; bring to a simmer until it starts to become thick and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with a lid and set aside.
- Mix the water and cucumber slices. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Blanch the Fries:
- If using the oven: Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Place the fries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cook in the oven until tender, about 15 - 20 minutes.
- If using oil: heat the oil to 300°F (150°C) in a dutch oven or deep fryer. Fry fries in small batches until softened, about 6 - 10 minutes.
- Heat the oil to 375°F (191°C).
- Preheat the broiler over low heat.
- Fry the fries until crispy and golden brown (cook in batches as needed; overcrowding will result in limp fries). Remove to a paper towel-lined large bowl and season with salt immediately to taste.
- Arrange the fries onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pour the sausage gravy over the fries. Top with cheese. Place under the broiler until melted.
- Make the eggs: Heat the butter in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook until the white is set. Set aside.
- Arrange the salad ingredients into a bowl. Dress the salad.
- Serve the fries topped with fried egg and garnish with parsley. Enjoy with salad and cucumber water.
