Canadian Poutine-Inspired Cheesy Potatoes

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and halve baby potatoes. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  3. Roast potatoes for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and tender. Check tenderness with a fork.
  4. While potatoes are roasting, prepare vegetarian gravy. In a saucepan, whisk together vegetable broth, cornstarch, soy sauce, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme until smooth.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and glossy. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  6. Once potatoes are roasted, transfer them to a serving dish. Top generously with cheese curds and pour hot gravy over the top. Serve immediately to enjoy the melted cheese and warm gravy.
