When you think European breakfast, it is usually a nice spread of some cold cuts, eggs, fresh fruits, waffles or pancakes with a side of maple syrup and a warm cup of java. During one such dreamy breakfast mornings in Paris, French chef Alexis Gielbaum put his thinking cap on and came up with a playful version of his favourite AM food, the vegetable waffle.

While it's available at the city's French eatery, Slink and Bardot, you can also whip it up at home. Speaking about his kitchen experiment Gielbaum says, "It's something that I encountered when I was cooking back in Paris. I figured eggs and waffles were both classic breakfast foods and wanted to combine them in dinner format amped with black truffle and mascarpone."
