Quick chickpea flatbread (no gluten)
A thin, soft flatbread made from chickpea flour, naturally gluten-free. In Italy it is called farinata, in Nice socca.
Three steps
- Whisk a cup of chickpea flour (about 120 g) with a cup of water (250 ml), a spoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt until smooth. Leave for 30 minutes.
- Heat a little oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium-high heat and pour in a thin layer of batter.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until set and golden underneath, then turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
Good to know
With coeliac disease, choose chickpea flour labelled gluten-free: flours can be milled alongside wheat.
