Melting Cheese Battered Potato Waffles

Melting Cheese Battered Potato Waffles recipe, eat well on universal credit

Well it looks like we have invented something new. A couple of days ago Sue said “Why don’t we batter some of the Waffles next time?” Well that sounded like an interesting idea. I suggested that we add cubes of Cheese in the holes through them. That’s how our version of culinary insanity works sometimes!!!!

So if you fancy a bit of fun while bringing plain old Waffles to an entirely new level, have a pop at this…..

Ingredients:-

Frozen Potato Waffles
Cheese (Lactose free for us)

For the Batter:-

1 Tbsp of Gram Flour
5 Tbsps of Cornflour
Salt & fresh ground Black Pepper to season
1 Tsp of Chilli Flakes
1 Tsp of Garlic Powder
1 Tsp of Onion Powder
2 Tsps of Baking Powder
2 Tsps of Turmeric
Soda Water

Method:-

(1) Keeping the Waffles frozen, cut cubes of Cheese to fill all the holes.
(2) Return to the freezer.
(3) Add Cornflour to a plate and kitchen paper to a separate plate.
(4) Mix the Batter ingredients with enough Sofa Water to make a thick batter.
(5) Remove the Waffles from the freezer.
(6) Heat a deep fat fryer to 170c.
(7) Coat the Cheese stuffed frozen Waffles in Cornflour.
(8) Fully coat with the batter.
(9) Fry individually, turning over four times, until the Batter is puffy and browned.
(10) Remove and drain.

Apart from being really good and dreadfully filling these tick all the boxes for Sue dietary requirements. They’re both Gluten and Lactose free. Also effectively Vegetarian, if that’s important to you.

Don’t expect to eat much else on your plate! We served these with a Steak, Sweet Corn in Garlic Better and DIY Peppercorn Sauce. We didn’t get to watch TV last night, we were like a pair of upturned Turtles!!!!!!

Turkey Parmigiana with roasted Hazelnuts

I found some Turkey breast steaks for the bank melting price of £0.88 and as I ended up flat bound by the weather yesterday we decided to play in the kitchen. Chicken Parmigiana is one thing, but we think we took it to another level. But I guess we would really?!

Method:-

(1) Fry the Onions on a low heat until translucent.
(2) Add the Garlic and stir for a couple of minutes.
(3) Add the Mushrooms and stir again for a couple of minutes.
(4) Add the Passata, Tomato Puree and stir.
(5) Add the Oregano and Basil and season with Salt & Pepper.
(6) Simmer for 5 minutes and stir occasionally.

Turkey Steaks

Ingredients:-

Turkey Breast steaks
Bread Crumbs (Gluten free in our case)

Dried Parsley
Dried Basil
Milk
Flour
Oil to fry
Salt & Pepper
Chilli flakes

(1) Toast the Hazelnuts in their shells at 180C for 10 minutes on a tray and then allow to cool.
(2) Crack the shells and chop the nuts in a food processor.
(3) Mix the Breadcrumbs, half of the grated Italian style Cheese, Parsley and nuts and put in a bowl.
(4) Season the flour with Salt & Pepper, Chilli Flakes and put in a bowl.
(5) Mix the beaten Egg with a little Milk to make an Egg wash and add to a bowl.
(6) Heat the Oil in a large frying pan.
(7) Dip each Turkey steak firstly in seasoned Flour, then the Egg wash and finally the Breadcrumb mix.
(8) Fry on both sides on a moderate heat until the breadcrumbs are golden.
(9) Spoon a little Passata sauce over each steak.

We really enjoyed the intense flavours and the Turkey was both tender and moist. Serve with scalloped chips and a dressed salad perhaps?
