Ingredients 

  • 1 cup chickpea flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil + extra oil for the pan
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary finely chopped

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 200C (375F) with the cast iron pan in it.
  • In a bowl, combine chickpea flour, water, salt, rosemary and olive oil. You can use a food processor to speed up the process and make sure the batter doesn't have any clumps. Use the Pulse function a couple of times, do not over-process the batter.
  • Cover the bowl with a towel or a lid and let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
  • Using oven gloves or a towel, carefully remove the hot pan from the oven, grease it well with olive oil, pour the chickpea flour mix into the pan and return it to the oven.
  • Bake the socca in the oven for around 15-20 minutes, until it becomes well browned at the edges.
  • Serve socca with fresh greens, vegetables or your favorite sauce.
