The Mrs just made some chips.

Then grated loads of cheese on the top of them.

Easy. Boss.

Can't beat a good poutine

Had to Google that, do you put gravy on yours?

Kimchi is a vastly overlooked topping for burgers. Try it on both veggie and beef burgers.

Do you make your own kimchi? I'm giving it a go very soon.

Chorizo is excellent for adding a rich paprika taste to lots of stews and sauces.

Was going through a phase in early quarantine where I would make french fries (chips) and melt cheese on them and then top with mushroom gravy. Delicious.

Hmmmmm, interesting. I've never had chips with mushroom gravy. How do you make yours?

No, never tried. But let me know how your's turns out! I just get it in jars at the store.

Chop up a bunch of mushrooms and saute in olive oil and garlic and sage, then add veggie stock and add flour (and a little butter) to make it thick. I think that's it.

Similar to mine but I add a splash of white wine when I'm sauteing my mushrooms. Going have to give it a try with fries sometime soon.

I love chorizo but it is made different depending of the culture. Which one do you use?

Always decorate in odd numbers, it‘s easier on the eye than even numbers

You have a great eye (your pics are always amazing) so I'm going to follow this tip from no on.

For sure

The meaning "fries with cheese and gravy" of poutine is among those held as probably unrelated to pudding, provided the latter view is correct. According to Merriam-Webster, a popular etymology is that poutine is from a Québécois slang word meaning "mess".

I watched a Gordon Ramsay show and he said about the odd numbers, can’t remember what he cooked but let’s say scallops, put 3 on the plate, or 5 and so on, it looks better.
thanks

A quick question on tip number 17; what is "leftover wine" ?
