Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 40 g | 1/4 cup plain all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 100 g | 3.5oz baby spinach finely chopped
- 1 large potato such as Maris Piper, cooked and cubed
- 80 g | 2.8oz feta cheese crumbled
- 3 spring onions scallions, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp finely chopped flat leaf parsley
- 1 tsp finely chopped dill optional
- cooking spray for the waffle maker
For the tzatziki
- 300 g | 10.5oz Greek Yoghurt I used 0% Total
- 150 g | 5.3oz cucumber seeds removed (about half large cucumber)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 large garlic clove minced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Olive oil to drizzle
- ½ tsp dried oregano or mint
Instructions
- Make the tzatziki sauce. Coarsely grate the cucumber in a bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Let it stand for 5 minutes and then use your hands to squeeze most of the moisture out.
- Mix well with the yoghurt, garlic, oregano and lemon juice and drizzle with the olive oil. Cover and put in the fridge until needed.
- Boil the potato until fork tender. Cool, peel and cut into small cubes. Set aside to cool slightly. (note: you can also use leftover roast or boiled potatoes)
- Preheat your waffle maker and mist with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, salt and oil. Sift the flour and baking powder over the bowl and then mix together until batter is smooth.
- Fold in the potato, chopped spinach, feta, spring onion and herbs.
- Use enough batter to fill about half the surface of your waffle maker – remember it will expand when you close the lid so don't overfill.
- Cook for about 5 minutes or until golden and firm. Carefully transfer to a warm plate. Repeat with rest of the batter - depending on the size and depth of your waffle maker you will end up with 3-4 large waffles.
- Serve the waffles hot or cold with the tzatziki as a side dip.
