Ingredients
1/2 cup chickpea flour1/2 cup white flour1/2 teaspoon baking powderSalt and freshly ground black pepper1/3 cup chopped onion or scallionsAbout 1/2 cup raw shrimp, chopped, or scallops or other shellfish or fish2 to 3 tablespoons chopped chives, parsley, thyme or cilantroOlive oil.
Directions
1. In a bowl, combine flours and baking powder with salt and pepper. Add a little more than a cup of water and stir to combine; consistency should resemble pancake batter (if batter is too thick, add more water, a little at a time). Stir in the onions, chopped seafood and herbs.

2. Put a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and film its bottom generously with olive oil. When oil is hot, pour in half the batter until it fills center of pan; spread gently with a spoon to form a large pancake.

3. Cook about 3 minutes, or until pancake is set around edges; flip pancake and continue cooking for another 3 minutes, then flip it again and cook for another 30 seconds or so, until it is crisp on outside but still moist inside. Remove from pan and serve immediately, while remaining batter cooks.

Yield: 4 or more servings.
