Sweet Potato Chickpea Panelle
- 1 small sweet potato
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for frying
- Cook the sweet potato to tender in the microwave (about 5-6 minutes) or oven. Let cool. Blend 1/2 cup to smooth with 2 cups water. Heat the mixture in a medium pot with salt until just boiling. Whisk in flour slowly, add green onions and stir until smooth. Stir in 2 T olive oil and cook until thickened. Scoop into a greased 11x7 baking dish (you can use a portion of a larger one as the mixture is quite thick) and smooth the top. Let cool, then chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat 1/4" oil in a pan, cut chickpea mixture into shapes (fries, rounds, squares) and fry on each side a couple minutes until browned. Drain on paper towels adding a sprinkle of salt if desired.
