Ingredients

Vegetable oil

3/4 pound sausage, cases removed and crumbled

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 red pepper, finely chopped

1/2 green pepper, finely chopped

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 cup chopped mixed herbs

1 medium clove garlic, finely chopped

7 eggs

1 1/4 cups milk

4 tablespoons butter, melted

1/2 cup sliced scallions

Directions

Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat to 200 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large stainless steel skillet over medium high heat until shimmering then add crumbled sausage. Cook, stirring, until sausage is browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain all but about 1 tablespoon fat. Add onion and peppers. Cook until onions are beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm. Preheat waffle iron following manufacturers instructions. In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, sugar, and herbs. In a separate bowl whisk together garlic, 3 eggs, milk, and melted butter. Whisk wet and dry ingredients together. Cook waffles according to manufacturer's directions until crisp and brown. Place cooked waffle on a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. When all waffles are cooked, heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add remaining four eggs and fry until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes. Serve waffles topped with sausage and pepper mixture and a fried egg.
