BLT waffles

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
The BLT (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato) is a masterpiece of textures: the meeting of hot, fatty bacon with cold, crunchy lettuce and juicy tomato. In this version, the role of bread is taken by a more neutral-flavoured waffle, crispy on the outside and soft inside, which can absorb tomato juice and mayonnaise without falling apart immediately.

Instructions

1 ✓

Fry the bacon slowly over medium heat until crispy so that most of the fat renders out.

Tip: Slow frying (fat rendering) results in the most brittle, crispy texture.
2 ✓

Mix the waffle batter: mixture of flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, egg, milk, and butter.

Tip: Black pepper in the batter harmonises wonderfully with the mayonnaise.
3 ✓

Cook the waffles until golden brown, then leave to cool on a rack for a minute.

Tip: If the waffle is too hot, it will wilt the lettuce and melt the mayonnaise, which may run out.
4 ✓

Spread mayonnaise on the waffles, place the dry-wiped lettuce leaf, tomato slices, and bacon on top.

Tip: The lettuce 'insulates' the waffle from the tomato juice, so it doesn't get soggy immediately.
5 ✓

Serve immediately as a sandwich or open-faced.

Tip: Freshness is key; temperature contrasts (warm waffle/bacon vs cold veg) provide the experience.

Recipe FAQ

How does the bacon stay crispy?
After frying, place on kitchen paper and do not cover, otherwise it will soften from its own steam.
What lettuce should I use?
Iceberg or Romaine lettuce are best because they are the crunchiest.
