Socca (Farinata)
Dec 11, 2022A simple but yet delicious Socca (Farinata) recipe. Perfect for entertaining when you want a gluten free alternative to serve with dinner or an anti pasta platter.
Serves 4-5 appetizer servings
Cooking time 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 to 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
Directions
- Heat the oven to 230 degrees Celsius. Put a well-seasoned or nonstick 30 cm pizza pan or cast-iron frying pan in oven. (If you have a socca pan, obviously that will work well also.)
- Put the chickpea flour in a bowl, add the salt and pepper. Slowly add 1 cup lukewarm water, whisking to eliminate lumps. Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cover and let sit while the oven heats, or for as long as 12 hours. The batter should be about the consistency of heavy cream.
- Remove the pan from the oven, pour 2 tablespoons of the oil into it and swirl. Add the onions return the pan to the oven and cook, stirring once or twice, until they’re well browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the rosemary. Stir the onions and rosemary into the batter, then immediately pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the pancake is firm and the edges set.
- Heat the griller, and brush the top of the pancake with 1 or 2 tablespoons of oil if it looks dry. Set the pancake a few inches away from the griller, and cook just long enough to brown it in spots. Cut it into wedges, and serve hot or warm.
