Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    2 cups chickpea flour
    7 cups water
    ½ tsp salt
    1 tsp garlic powder
    ½ tsp freshly ground pepper
    1 tsp olive oil

Directions

Bring the water to a boil, then stir in the chickpea flour, salt, garlic powder and pepper.
You should have a thin, smooth batter.
Pour into a pan at least 14" in diameter, bring over medium high heat to return to a bubble.
Reduce heat to low and cook for 30-40 minutes, stirring briskly with a whisk in the first 5 minutes to make it smooth.
When it is done cooking, it should be a thick cake that will not stick to your hands.
Allow to cool, then cut the panissa into squares or triangles.
Heat the olive oil to a medium high heat in a skillet.
Add in the dough pieces and fry until slightly crispy.
Serve with a tomato sauce or pepper jelly.
