Cook With the Kids: these are crunchy little potato gem waffles for cold afternoons when dinner needs to feel easy. Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt gives the cheesy potato a bright, lemony kick without turning it into a whole production.
- 500g gluten-free frozen potato gems, thawed for 20 min
- 1 cup grated cheddar
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons cornflour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt
- 1 spring onion, finely sliced
- Olive oil spray
- 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt, to serve
Step 1: Squash
Heat a waffle maker to medium-high. Put the thawed potato gems in a bowl and squash them with a fork, then stir in the cheddar, egg, cornflour, Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt and spring onion until the mix holds together.
Step 2: Cook
Spray the waffle plates well. Spoon in half the potato mix, close the lid and cook for 8 to 9 minutes, until the edges are deep golden and the waffle lifts out easily. Repeat with the remaining mix.
Step 3: Serve
Rest the waffles on a rack for 2 minutes so the steam escapes, then tear them into chunks and serve with Greek yoghurt for dipping.
Tip: If your waffle maker runs hot, check at 7 minutes. The cheese should brown at the edges, not burn onto the plates.
