Instructions
For waffles
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prick a large sweet potato in a few places with a fork and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cook for 45 to 60 minutes, until very tender.
Let cool for a few minutes, remove the skin, and mash the flesh into a smooth purée using a fork or a pestle.
Let cool for about 10 minutes before continuing.
Preheat the waffle maker.
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato puree, shredded cheese, flour, and flax seeds, paprika, garlic powder, and pepper.
The mixture should be thick, but easy to spread.
Lightly oil the waffle iron.
Distribute the mixture into the mold without over-packing it.
Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy.
Let stand for 1-2 minutes before removing so it retains its texture.
Meanwhile, fry the eggs in a pan until the whites are set and the yolk is runny or firm, as you like.
Place a waffle on each plate.
Garnish with avocado slices or a generous spoonful of guacamole.
Add a fried egg.
Garnish with chives, a little freshly ground pepper, and, if needed, a few chili flakes.
