Yield: 1 waffle
Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup pancake mix
- 1 – 2 tablespoons margarine
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Grill:
- Change the angle on the George Foreman meat cooking grill so it is level, not tilted anymore (I used the small George Foreman grill– the one that cooks approximately 4 hamburgers).
- Use the spare legs or the drain tray upside down or a similar method.
- Preheat the grill for 5 minutes–use a timer.
-
Prepare the Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the water, pancake mix, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Adjust the amount of pancake mix according to your desired thickness.
-
Grease the Grill:
- Lightly grease both sides of the grill with margarine. Do not use butter in the grill as it will burn black and smoke.
-
Cooking:
- Pour the entire batter gently into the grill, smoothing it carefully to ensure even cooking.
- Close the grill and let it cook for about a minute or until steaming slows down or stops.
- Open the grill and test with a toothpick to see if it’s done. If not, close the grill for an additional 10 to 30 seconds.
- Once done, open the grill and remove the tiger waffle. It will have golden brown and dark brown tiger stripes and be moist like a Belgian waffle but with a unique taste and texture.
-
Serving:
- Serve hot with syrup, hot fruit sauces, or as part of a meal instead of potatoes or rice, particularly with a gravy or cream sauce.
