👨🍳 How To Make
Follow these steps:
Step 1
Place the eggs in a bowl and whisk them.
Step 2
Drain the sardines, add them to the eggs, and break them into very small pieces using a fork or your fingers. If using parsley- add it too. Mix everything.
Step 3
Let the waffle maker preheat according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once hot, pour the batter in and spread it evenly across the surface of the waffle maker.
Step 4
Check the waffles every 30 seconds, and remove them once they are golden brown and cooked through. This usually takes about 2-5 minutes, depending on your waffle maker.
Step 5
Let the sardine waffles cool for 5 minutes on a wire rack before serving. This will help them crisp up and become easier to handle.
Serve the sardine waffles warm, and enjoy your unique and protein-packed breakfast or snack! I also like adding more fresh sardines on top.
💡Tips
1. Cook Until Golden Brown and Crispy
Once your waffle maker is preheated and greased, pour the sardine and egg batter onto the center of the lower plate, spreading it evenly with a spatula if needed.
Close the waffle maker and let the waffles cook for 2-5 minutes, depending on your desired level of doneness and the specifications of your waffle maker. Check the waffles every 30 seconds to ensure they don’t burn.
2. Let the Waffles Cool Before Serving
After removing the sardine waffles from the waffle maker, place them on a wire rack and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes. This cooling period allows the waffles to release excess steam, which helps them crisp up and become easier to handle.
The brief rest also allows the flavors to meld together, enhancing the overall taste of the dish. Once cooled, serve the waffles warm, and consider topping them with additional fresh sardines for an extra protein boost and a delightful contrast in texture.
