Corned Beef Gravy Fries
March 9, 2017
Corned beef with the spices that come in the package. I also added just a little carrot, onion, and cabbage only to help flavor the broth that I used later in the gravy.
I made a fresh slaw to counteract the heavy deep flavors in the beef and gravy.
The corned beef is looking great.
Corned beef and onion in a pan to brown. Flour goes in next, then some milk and that cooking liquid from the corned beef.
This gravy is rich and flavorful. (aka fatty)
Smother the fries in the gravy and then add some additional corned beef, and then the slaw.
Then just add some forks and friends and dig in.
These fries hit all the notes of what you want in a boiled dinner like corned beef, potatoes, cabbage, and carrot, but it is served in a totally different way. The cilantro and green onion in the slaw gives the dish a much needed freshness. If you are drinking on St. Patrick's Day and serve this to your drunk friends, people will lose their minds.
