The waffle iron is ever-present — at children's parties, school events or rummage sales. Whenever you have a large number of (kids') mouths to feed, this smart electrical device provides a quick and uncomplicated way to keep everyone happy. Yet for the rest of the year, they're often left unused at the back of a kitchen cupboard. That doesn't have to be the case though, as you can make a whole host of hearty meals with your handy waffle iron...

Tip: Always grease your waffle iron with some butter or oil before use so that nothing sticks to it.

1. Potato Rosti

You'll need:

Extra: Filled Potato Waffles

You'll need:

- 14 oz potatoes
- 5¾ fl oz milk
- 4½ oz flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp chives

You'll also need:

- 4 slices of bacon
- 2 slices of cheddar

Here's how:

1. Boil the peeled potatoes for approximately 15 minutes. In the meantime, fry the slices of bacon.

2. Next, mash the boiled potatoes, adding milk, flour, egg, baking powder, and chives while stirring.

3. Spread the mash potato onto the waffle iron. Keep a little back though, as you'll need it to cover the slices of cheddar and bacon.

4. Once you've covered the bacon and cheddar with the rest of the mash, cook everything until golden brown at 75% heat.
