Chickpea Fry Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, water, olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and there are no lumps.

  2. 2

    Add Fresh Herbs

    Fold in the chopped parsley into the batter until evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Cook the Batter

    Pour the batter into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is firm and slightly golden.

  4. 4

    Cool and Cut

    Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool completely. Once cooled, cut the baked chickpea batter into fry-shaped pieces.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chickpea Fries

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the chickpea fries in batches until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides. Drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
