Brown sauce goes really well with french fries.

Chef Risto Mikkola does like many other Finns: regularly pushes a tray of frozen French fries into his home oven.
Mikkola’s favorites are long and thin french fries, which get a better crispy surface in the home oven.
Try french fries with brown sauce. Shockingly good.
Poutine is a Canadian delicacy with french fries, cheese and brown gravy. The combination works really well.
While preparing the sauce, Mikkola had a small accident. He was supposed to add a tablespoon of pickle broth to the sauce, but it ended up being desi.
– It was luck in the accident. The pickle broth increased the amount of acid in the sauce, which was ultimately a really good thing. A strong acid suits this dish well. You really don’t need ketchup.
Läskisoosi is one of Mikkola’s favorite dishes, so it inspired him this time.
This dish has all the same elements as a good lässä sauce: potato, brown sauce and pork ribs.
Overcooked pork ribs are not difficult to prepare at home either, but you can set aside several hours for it. Namely, it should be cooked gently and at a low heat, so that its structure remains intact despite being overcooked. The best result is obtained by cooking overnight.
– Then the pig will melt in your mouth. The side and neck of the pork make extremely good dishes by slow braising. They are still affordable.
