Miniature Chicken & Waffle Cones
Yield: Approximately 50 cones
Ingredients for Remoulade
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup sour cream
2 T honey
1 T sriracha
1 T maple syrup
Method
Combine all ingredients and transfer to a squeeze bottle.
Ingredients for Mashed Potatoes
3 lbs potato, russet, peeled & cut into 1" cubes
4 T unsalted butter, chopped
½ cup milk, whole
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp white pepper, ground
Method
Place in a large pot with 1 T salt. Add water so it’s 10cm / 4” above the potatoes.
Preheat fryer to 350° F.
Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce heat so it’s simmering rapidly. Cook for 15 minutes or until potatoes are very soft (jab with fork to test, they should fall apart).
Drain well, return to the pot. Leave for one minute, shaking pot every now and then, to encourage evaporation of water.
Press potatoes through ricer.
Fold in butter, milk, salt and pepper.
Transfer to piping bag.
Ingredients for Chicken
3 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into ½ oz pieces
1 cup flour
1 tsp salt

Fry chicken for three to four minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165° F.
To Assemble
Pipe mashed potatoes into waffle cone.
Top with fried chicken.
Add a dollop of maple sriracha remoulade.
