This was our breakfast this morning. The waffle iron set comes with a recipe booklet but unfortunately it is all in Japanese. Therefore took some initiative and got some of it translated and work blindly on the rest.
Instead of making waffle batter from scratch I bought a packet of Betty Crocker Pancake mix and all I needed to do was add water and oil. It was a small packet (about 190grms) and made 5 Hello Kitty waffles.
First you need to preheat the waffle iron by putting it on the stove, best to heat both sides for about 1 - 2 minutes each side. When it is warmed enough, open the iron and scoop the batter into the iron and close gently. Make sure that there are sufficient batter, too little and the shape will not form, too little and it will overflowed. I cooked about 1 - 2 minutes each side before opening to check whether it has browned nicely.
There is no need to grease the iron as the iron is made of good quality non-stick material. You will need to however make sure that the batter is cooked before opening the iron to peep as it will break if it is not cooked yet. Do not despair if it does not come out nice as (one side burned etc) as practice makes it perfect. I made 5 waffles and only 3 were good enough to be photographed. You be the judge. You can use a sharp pick to gently push out the waffle
The waffles are best served when it is still warm and crispy so if you want to serve all together then you need put it into the oven first to keep it hot and crisp. I served mine with butter, chocolate sauce, strawberry jam and whipped cream.
Next week or hopefully within the next few days I will try-out the donut maker.
