Ingredients

  • 3 cups besan flour (chickpea flour)
  • 2¾ cups water
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Leaves of 2 rosemary sprigs, pounded in mortar & pestle
  • 1 tsp dry basil
  • 1 tsp fennel seeds
  • Pinch chilli flakes
  • 1 heaped tsp gluten-free baking powder

  • ¼ cup black olives, stones removed
  • Extra rosemary to garnish & good sea salt

Method


  • Place besan flour, water, olive oil, pounded rosemary, baking powder, herbs and chilli in food processor or high speed blender and whizz. The mixture should resemble a runny batter. Pour into a shallow baking tin greased with olive oil and lined with baking paper.
  • Scatter the olives, red onion, rosemary and sea salt onto the batter. Bake in moderate oven for 35 mins or until golden brown and firm and springy to touch
