- Spring onions: Finely chopped spring onion greens for freshness and flavour. Sub with coriander in a pinch.
- Capsicum: Finely chopped for lots of texture and a slight heat in every bite.
- Cheese: A combination of cheddar and mozzarella is my favourite but processed cheese moreover works really well
- Italian seasoning: For a herby flavour
- Salt: For flavour and seasoning.
- Sugar: An expected ingredient, but it really helps enhance the corn-iness of the waffles
- Flour: Both whole wheat and all purpose flour. You can play virtually with the proportions but I went halfsies
- Baking powder: Just a pinch helps make the thrash fluffy and the waffles, zappy and crispy.
- Egg: 1 whole egg to tighten the mixture together
