Savory Chive Waffles

I've been putting my new waffle iron to good use. Chinese chive pancakes have been a favorite of mine since childhood and today I turned them into waffles! They don't have the same chewy and crispy texture as the pancakes, however the chive waffles are not as greasy and equally satisfying.

I enjoyed them with mayonnaise and dried pork.

Chinese Chive Pancakes Waffles!

1 cup flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

dash white pepper

dash freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 cup milk (room temp)

1/2 cup water (room temp)

1 eggs, separated

1 tbsp butter - melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat waffle iron and brush with oil. My iron tends to stick, you can skip the oil if you want.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and peppers into a mixing bowl.
3. Lightly whisk the milk, water, melted butter and egg yolk. Mix into dry ingredients
4. Whisk the eggs whites until you get stiff peaks. Gently fold into batter until must combined.
5. Scoop half a cup at a time into waffle iron. Follow standard cooking times for your waffle iron. I like to keep my waffles in a warm oven until the last one is done.

Makes four small waffles.
