Ingredients
  • Olive oil
  • 2 1⁄2 cups chickpea flour
  • 4 Cups *COLD* salted water
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Olive oil/vegetable oil for frying

Directions
  1. Brush six saucers with olive oil and set aside.
  2. Pour chickpea flour in a steady stream into 4 cups cold salted water in a large, heavy saucepan, whisking as you pour to prevent lumps.
  3. Cook over medium heat, whisking vigorously, until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat, still whisking, and pour batter into saucers.
  5. Fill the saucers up to the rims, about 1⁄2" thick.
  6. Cool at least 30 minutes, then gently slide batter off saucers and cut into "steak-fry" shapes, about 3⁄4" x 3" long.
  7. Heat 1" olive oil/vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over high heat.
  8. Fry in batches without crowding, turning often, until golden brown, about 5–7 minutes.
  9. Drain, season with salt and pepper.

Sounds lovely to me! There is an Italian dish called panissa that combines polenta with beans and is baked. I love that, too.


My mom is a huge fan of chickpea anything - I think I will have her make these so I can try them!!


These were really great! Who'd a thunk, chickpeas?
