Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your waffle maker to a medium-high setting. In a small bowl, combine the poppy seeds, toasted sesame seeds, garlic granules, and crispy onions to create a savory seasoning blend.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the room-temperature mashed potatoes with the milk until smooth. Add the plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt, and sugar, stirring until a thick batter forms.

Gently fold the sliced spring onions and the prepared seasoning mix into the potato batter until evenly distributed.

Lightly brush the waffle maker plates with melted butter. Spoon half of the batter into the center and spread it out slightly. Close the lid and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the waffle is deeply golden and crispy.

Carefully remove the waffle with a spatula and keep it warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. Serve immediately with your choice of toppings like smoked salmon, crispy bacon, poached eggs, or a dollop of soured cream.
