Method
Level of difficulty:
Hobby cook
- Wash the baby cucumbers and slice finely into strips. Remove the avocado from its skin and beat with olive oil and salt until smooth. Season the crème fraîche with finely chopped fresh herbs.
- Separate the eggs, whisk the whites with a pinch of salt until stiff. Beat the yolks with the butter until foamy. Alternately stir a little milk and a little flour into the yolk mixture. Finally, stir in baking powder and the bacon strips. Set 1 Tbs of the bacon strips aside for the topping.
- Pre-heat the waffle iron and grease if required. Cook 4 or 5 waffles and drain on a piece of kitchen paper.
- Place a little crème fraîche and avocado cream onto each hot waffle. Top with the bacon strips and cucumbers.
For more variety, double the volume of waffle batter and top the additional waffles with salmon.
