Ingredients
For Fries (Chips):
Potatoes: 1kg / 5 -6 large potatoes
oil to fry
Salt : to taste
Pepper: to taste
Sticky bacon bits:
Bacon:10 – 12 strips
Mapple syrup: to taste
Gravy:
Chicken stock: 1cup/ 250ml
Cheddar cheese or cheese curd for garnish
Method:
To make fries, chop the potatoes into long strips. Fry them in boiling hot oil. Once the fries are done take them off on an absorbent paper, and after they have cooled down, add salt and pepper and toss them properly.
Sticky bacon bits
Take long streaky bacon and cut them into small pieces. Then cook the small bits of bacon in a warm pan, when they are nice and golden, take them out on an absorbent paper. To a clean pan, on medium heat add some maple syrup and add the fried bacon to it. Let the bacon soak up all the syrup, this will only take a couple of minutes, then immediately take it off the flame before it caramelises and burns.
Gravy
Take chicken stock in a saucepan on a medium flame and add cold mixture of butter and flour (Beurre manié) and whisk it till it dissolves completely and forms thick chicken gravy.
Sunny side up (quail eggs)
Take some oil in a frying pan on low heat, cook the eggs.
On a plate lay the fries, garnish it with cheese, gravy, bacon bits, and quail egg sunny side ups.
