Prepare 15 minutes

Ingredients 

 

WAFFLES

• 120g refined flour

• 2 tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp baking soda

• 1 tbsp refined sugar

• 100g melted butter

• 2 eggs

• 240ml buttermilk

• 50g grated cheddar cheese

• 2 tbsp finely chopped chives

• 2 tbsp finely chopped parsley

 

EGGS

• 3 tbsp olive oil

• 4 eggs

• 2-4 red chillies, deseeded and thinly sliced

• 4 tbsp dill fronds

• 1 tbsp chilli oil

 

Method

 

1. Heat the Micasa Stovetop Waffle Maker over a medium flame.

2. Combine the first 4 ingredients in a bowl and season.

3. Whisk the butter, eggs and buttermilk, pour into the dry mix and stir to combine. Mix in the cheddar, chives and parsley.

4. Pour a ladleful into the waffle maker. Cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until the edges are crisp and golden. Transfer to a plat and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.

5. Fry the eggs in the olive oil – just as the whites set, sprinkle over the chilli and dill. Drizzle with the chilli oil and serve with the waffles.
