Pepper & Onion Chickpea-Flour Fritters with Beau Monde
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Beau Monde
- 1 tablespoon Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cups bell pepper strips
- 2 cups thinly sliced onion
- 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil
- ¾ cup chickpea flour
- ½ cup water
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons additional neutral oil, for frying
- ½ cup plain yogurt, for serving
Method
- If the blend contains coarse leaf pieces, grind it to a fine powder before measuring.
- Mix the featured seasoning with the olive oil and lemon juice.
- Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper strips and thinly sliced onion. Cook for 3 minutes, then add ¼ cup water, cover and cook for 8–15 minutes, until tender. Uncover to evaporate excess water.
- Chop the cooked vegetables finely and cool. Whisk the chickpea flour, water and baking powder into a thick batter; fold in the vegetables and seasoning mixture.
- Heat a thin layer of the additional oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook heaped-tablespoon portions for 3–4 minutes per side, until browned and firm in the middle. Serve with yogurt.
