Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • 3.5 oz Chickpea Flour
  • 6 oz Sunflower Oil
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1/2 oz Sugar
  • Icing Sugar for sprinkling on top

Instructions
 

  • Boil the water and the sugar in a saucepan.
  • Slowly pour in the chickpea flour and whisk quickly to avoid lumps. Strain if necessary.
  • Cook for about 10 minutes, whisking continuously.
  • Pour onto saucers and allow to cool for at least an hour. Cut the dough into chips. Fry them on high heat in a heavy skillet and sprinkle with icing sugar.

Notes

You can use ready-made panisses to "save time" and roll them in granulated sugar instead of icing sugar.
As a variation, sprinkle the panisse with a few drops of orange blossom water.
