Potato Waffles

Prep Time20 minutes
Servings: 2 people

Ingredients

  • 2 medium potatoes
  • knob of butter
  • sea salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 200 grams cottage cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 avocado
  • small red onion finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon pickled red onion
  • 2 San Marzano tomatoes
  • 1 pomegranate deseeded
  • waffle iron

Instructions

  • Wash the potatoes and place them in a small pot. Cover with water.
  • Add a pinch of sea salt.
  • Bring to the boil.
  • When the potatoes are tender (about 10-13 minutes), cover with cold water and allow to cool slightly.
  • Turn on the waffle iron.
  • Stick a knob of butter onto a wooden skewer and rub it on the top and bottom surfaces of the waffle maker. Do be careful not to burn your fingers.
  • Place a potato on each side of the waffle iron and press down a few times while the potato cooks.
  • Leave the potatoes for about 8-10 minutes until crispy and golden brown (the timing will depend on your iron. Keep an eye on them so they don't burn).
  • Remove the waffle potatoes with tongs.
  • Sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.
  • To make the whipped cottage cheese, mix the cheese with 1 garlic clove and lemon juice in a mini food processor. Add sea salt and black pepper to taste.
  • For a quick guacamole, squeeze the contents of an avocado onto a plate and discard the seed. Add 1 minced garlic clove, red onion, a squeeze of lemon, and sea salt to taste. Mix well with a fork.
  • Assemble the plate with the whipped garlicky cottage cheese for the base.
  • Top with the waffle potatoes, guacamole, sliced San Marzano tomatoes (or any), pickled onion, pomegranate seeds, and a 7-minute boiled egg.
  • Enjoy.
