Ingredients

Scale

For The Waffle Potatoes

  • 12 small Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

For The Vegan Cheese Sauce

For The Chilli

  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 green pepper diced
  • 6 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced or 1 can of chopped tomatoes
  • 6 tbsp tomatoes paste
  • 2 cups water or vegetable stock
  • 4 cups mixed cooked beans
  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt & pepper
  •  Cayenne or hot peppers to taste (optional)

Green onion to garnish .

Instructions

  1. First step is to make the chilli. Heat a non stick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté for 4 minutes or until onions are translucent.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 30-40 until thickened, stirring occasionally.
  3. Make this Best Vegan Cheese Sauce  (skip if you are using store-bought).

  4. Meanwhile, add the potatoes to a large pot of salted boiling water, boiling the potatoes until just cooked through with no hard centres but not mushy. This is very important. One way to test readiness is to remove a potato and pierce it with a fork. The fork should go straight through and the potato should not crumble.

  5. Preheat oven to 425F. Ensure oven rack is in the centre position.

  6.  Heat a waffle iron to high setting and spray with non-stick spray( not a Belgian Waffle iron). Add 4 potatoes. Close the lid pressing the potatoes down flat. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

  7. Add waffle potatoes to a parchment lined baking tray. Spoon over chilli, vegan cheese sauce and sprinkle over green onion.
  8. Bake for 15-20 mins or until cheese is golden brown on top.
