I made fries tonight. Chopped up a couple potatoes, leaving the skin on, dumped them in the fryer at 350f for 6 minutes. Bammo. Fries. You can cut them thinner or thicker for crispiness, or cook them a little longer for a crisper shell. Let them drain for a few minutes, then salt as desired.

You mentioned poutine in the title, but no made no mention of it in the post. Poutine is not another name for fries, but a complete dish. It is a Canadian delicacy. In college we used to drive the 20 minutes to the Messina Bridge in New York and cross over the Seaway to a truck stop just for the Poutine and beer, Neither of which we could obtain legally in the US. Of course, customs never believed us that we just ran over the border on a friday night just for dinner, got searched for alcohol quite a few times, but we were smart enough not to have anything. Now the trips to Montreal.......
