Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Reindeer meat — Ensure the meat is thinly sliced to ensure quick and even cooking.
  • Mushrooms — Use fresh mushrooms and slice them thinly for a better texture and flavor.
  • Onions — Finely chop the onions to ensure they cook evenly and blend well with the other ingredients.
  • Grated cheese — Use a combination of your favorite melting cheeses, such as cheddar and mozzarella, for a gooey and flavorful filling.

Tips & Tricks

  • Experiment with different types of cheese to add variety to the filling.
  • Add a touch of garlic or herbs to the spaghetti mixture for extra flavor.
  • Serve the jaffles with a side of lingonberry jam for a traditional Yamal accompaniment.
  • If you don't have a jaffle maker, you can use a panini press or grill the jaffles in a skillet.
  • Customize the filling by adding vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for added freshness and nutrition.

Serving advice

Serve the Yamal-style Spaghetti Jaffles hot, either as a main dish or as a delightful snack. Pair them with a side of lingonberry jam and a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Presentation advice
