Potato waffles

Spread the love

Ingredients for 6 servings:

  • 750 g potatoes, mainly waxy
  • salt water
  • 50 g butter or margarine, soft
  • 4 eggs
  • 375 g low-fat curd cheese
  • 150 g flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • possibly nutmeg
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

as a side dish, snack or starter

Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 20 minutes. Drain, rinse, and peel off the skins. While still hot, press them through a potato ricer and let cool (so you can prepare them a day in advance). Whisk together the fat and eggs until creamy. One after the other, stir in the quark, flour, potatoes, and 1-2 teaspoons of salt, perhaps a pinch of nutmeg (to taste). Preheat the waffle iron and brush with a little oil. Pour about 2 tablespoons of potato batter into the waffle iron and bake the waffles one at a time until golden brown. I put the finished waffles in the oven at about 100°C until all the batter is used up. Tastes great as a side dish with potatoes or as a starter with salmon and a herb or horseradish dip.
