Panisse

House Made Hummus Spread

Shaved Vegetable Salad

Roasted Red Pepper Coulis

Method

Panisse Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Panisse

    In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Gradually whisk in chickpea flour, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until thickened (about 5-7 minutes). Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and spread evenly. Let it cool and set for at least 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Cut and Fry

    Once set, cut the chickpea mixture into squares or rectangles. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the pieces until golden and crispy on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side). Remove and drain on paper towels.

Hummus Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine canned chickpeas (drained), tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and water. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.

Salad Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Salad

    Using a vegetable peeler, shave the zucchini, carrot, and radish into thin ribbons. Toss with olive oil, lemon juice, and salt to taste.

Coulis Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Coulis

    Roast the red bell peppers until charred. Peel and remove seeds. In a blender, combine roasted peppers, olive oil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and salt. Blend until smooth.
