Chickpeas fritters

INGREDIENTS

• 1.5l (6 1/4 cups) of water
• 500g (3 1/2 cups) of chickpea flour
• Salt
• Pepper
• Parsley
• Oil for frying

METHOD

1. In a large bowl pour the water and gradually sift the chickpea flour, stirring constantly with a whisk until it is incorporated into the water. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
2. Transfer the batter to the pot and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk. From the moment of boiling, cook the batter for about 10 minutes.
3. As the dough cooks, it will thicken more and more until it takes on consistency so firm that we will have a hard time mixing! Add chopped parsley to the dough and give it a final stir.
4. Transfer the mixture into the loaf mold covered with parchment paper and fill it to the top. Level it up and let it cool for 4-5 hours.
5. After time has elapsed unmold the mixture and slice it forming the panelle.
6. Fry the fritters in hot oil on both sides until they are golden brown.
