About the recipe
Socca is a classic street food in the South of France. Pancake-thin unleavened bread, topped with a tasty filling, it’s a great snack. And it’s gluten-free too.
Recipe From
Ingredients
125g chickpea flour
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 large onions
½ a bunch of fresh rosemary
12 anchovy fillets
200g black olives (stone in)
30g unsalted butter
1 tablespoon caster sugar
Method
- In a bowl, mix the chickpea flour and oil with a pinch of sea salt and 290ml water, and whisk until smooth. Leave to stand for 30 minutes.
- Peel and finely slice the onions, pick and finely chop the rosemary and thinly slice the anchovies. Destone the olives.
- Melt the butter in a pan over a low heat, then add the onions and sugar. Cook for 25 minutes, or until coloured, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat the oven to 200ºC/gas 6. Heat a frying pan over a medium heat.
- Stir the rosemary into the batter, then cook the socca in batches. Spoon tablespoons of batter into the hot pan and cook for 1 minute on each side, or until golden. Transfer to a tray lined with baking paper.
- Top each socca with the caramelised onion, anchovies and olives, and bake for 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
