Chickpea Flour Tortilla
from The Camping Cookbook:
Ingredients
-
3/4 cup chickpea flour
-
rosemary or other herbs of your choosing, to taste, optional
-
3/4 cup water
-
2 tablespoons soffritto (finely diced onions, carrots and celery)
-
4 big champignon mushrooms
-
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
-
salt and ground pepper, to taste
Tools:
- 1 stove
- 2 pans
- Knife and chopping board
- 1 long handle spoon
Method
- In a bowl mix together the chickpea flour and salt (if you have herbs, add them now). Slowly add a bit of the water, whisking all the time, until you get a smooth paste (NO lumps!).
- Slowly add the rest of the water and keep whisking till you get a watery batter. Rest for at least 10 min to fully hydrate the chickpea flour.
- While the batter is resting, finely chop the mushrooms. Then fry the soffritto in a skillet, in the olive oil, then add the mushrooms.
- Cook the mushrooms for a couple of minutes, then add the batter and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook on a low flame, taking a peek every now and then, until the liquid is almost dry. Then flip the tortilla and continue cooking it until the pancake is cooked on both sides.
- Turn onto a plate, season well, and serve while hot.
