Egg waffles, also known as "gai daan jai" in Cantonese, are a popular street food originating from Hong Kong. These golden, round, and bubbly treats are made from a batter consisting of eggs, sugar, flour, evaporated milk, baking powder, and a hint of vanilla. The batter is cooked in a special honeycomb-shaped iron, giving the waffles their unique appearance and fluffy texture. While egg waffles are cherished for their delightful flavor and fun structure, their nutritional profile leans more toward indulgence than health. They are high in carbohydrates, sugars, and fats due to their sweetened batter and often lack substantial protein or fiber. Additionally, toppings like whipped cream or chocolate can further increase their calorie content. However, they can be enjoyed as an occasional treat when balanced with a diet rich in nutrient-dense options and moderate portion control.
