Time 1h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup capers, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
4 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon

Steps:

For the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Set aside.
For the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Form a well in the center and add the eggs, milk and sour cream. Starting from the inside, whisk together the wet ingredients, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients. When almost fully incorporated, drizzle in the butter and whisk until just combined.
Scoop enough batter into the waffle iron to fill three-quarters of the way. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons capers and 1 teaspoon chives. Close and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the waffle and divide in pieces along the marked lines. Top with a few slices of smoked salmon, a dollop of the lemon sour cream and some chives. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make more waffles.

POTATO WAFFLES WITH SMOKED TROUT

Potato Waffles With Smoked Trout image

These savory waffles were inspired by the Solomon Gundy waffles at M. Wells Steakhouse in Long Island City, Queens. It starts with a mashed potato waffle batter, which is baked in a waffle iron until very crisp around the edges. They are then opulently topped with crème fraiche (or sour cream), smoked trout and trout or salmon roe. If you can't find smoked trout, smoked salmon makes a fine substitute. Or try them topped with scrambled or fried eggs. Potato waffles make a terrific savory brunch dish, a light supper, or appetizer before a dinner party - they are unexpected in a festive, delightful way.
