we were madly looking for something to cook for St Patricks Day with the neighbors, but our oven is out of order. Finally, we decided to try these potato waffles. Now our waffle maker has never had anything in it but pure waffles or waffles with fruit in them so this was a big jump.
The waffles tasted great but were a bit soggy. I need to adjust some of the measurements. But super yummy. We will for sure make this recipe again.
- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cups finely chopped kale (packed)
- 1/4 cup salted butter I used olive oil and then added butter as well
- 2 cups cooked potato maybe a bit more
- 2 cups milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp salt--I dropped the salt to a pinch
- fresh ground pepper
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup flour
- 2 cups cheddar, shredded
Add olive oil/butter to a saucepan over medium heat.
Add onions and kale and cook until onions are translucent and kale is wilted.
Set aside (this mixture can be made the night before and rewarmed slightly before using).
Puree potatoes with milk, then add eggs, salt and a few grinds of pepper, mix to combine.
Sift together flour and baking powder, then mix into potato mixture.
Stir in shredded cheddar and kale mixture.
Heat up your waffle iron and add batter, cook for several minutes until waffles are golden. I got 6 from this recipe.
