Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Coarsely grate the cucumber and sprinkle it with 1 tsp salt. Let sit for 5 minutes, then squeeze out excess moisture. In a bowl, combine cucumber, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and dried oregano. Stir and refrigerate until serving.
  2. Boil the large potato in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, drain and cool slightly. Cube into small pieces.
  3. Preheat your waffle maker according to manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly mist with cooking spray.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, olive oil, and salt until combined. Sift in flour and baking powder, mixing until smooth. Fold in potato cubes, spinach, feta, spring onions, and herbs.
  5. Pour batter into the preheated waffle maker, filling halfway to prevent spillage. Cook for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Serve the waffles hot or chilled with a side of tzatziki for dipping.
