  • Top with pulled pork or bacon.
  • Use shredded mozzarella if you can't find cheese curds.
  • Make a vegetarian gravy with mushroom or vegetable broth.
  • Use sweet potato fries for a different twist.

Instructions:

1. Cook french fries according to your preference (fried or baked).

2. While fries are cooking, make the gravy. In a saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer.

3. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the simmering broth.

4. Cook, stirring, until the gravy thickens. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper.

5. To assemble, place hot fries on a plate, top with cheese curds, and pour the hot gravy over everything.

6. Serve immediately.
