Instructions

Sieve the flour, salt and baking powder together, add the mashed potatoes, and mix very thoroughly. Make a well in the centre of dry ingredients, add the sugar, the yolk of egg, melted butter and sufficient to mix to a moderately thin batter. Lastly, fold in stiffly beaten white of egg and cook as usual.

Cooking Instructions for Waffles

The most convenient way of filling a waffle-iron with batter is to pour it from a jug into the centre of the lower plate. Usually about two large tablespoons are sufficient to cover the iron, the batter being thin enough to flow all over. The top plate is then lowered and the waffle cooked for two minutes on one side. The plate is then reversed and the waffle cooked for another two minutes, or until crisp or brown. The waffle should then be lifted off and kept hot and the iron reheated and greased before proceeding to cook the rest of the batter.
