Algerian Garantita / Karanteta - Chickpea / Garbanzo Souffle
- 2 cups chickpea flour
- 4 cups water
- 12 cup sunflower oil (you can use vegetable or canola also)
- 2 -3 teaspoons salt
- 14 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 12-2 teaspoons cumin
- 4 tablespoons harissa
- 2 large French baguettes
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- Preheat oven to 180C.
- Place all your ingredients (except the egg & those required to serve!)
- in a large blender / liquidizer - you may need to do this in 2 batches --
- Liquidize the mixture until it is frothy & completely smooth.
- Pour this batter into a 7" x 11" rectangular pan - I like to use my pyrex dish.
- Whisk the egg, then pour over the top of the batter.
- Cook for around 45 minutes or until the top is lightly golden but the middle is still slightly squishy / sloppy (unless you like it firmer, in which case cook it 5 - 10 minutes more).
- Slice the garantita into 8 pieces (a large, wide spatula or cake knife is useful for this!)
- Cut each baguette into 1/4's, then split open & remove a little of the inner bread.
- Spread the bottom of each 1/4 of baguette with 1/2 tbsp of the harissa & lay the garantita on top.
- Sprinkle with a little cumin then cover with the top of the baguette - to make a sandwhich.
- Eat whilst hot & enjoy a taste sensation!
- If you have any Selecto to drink, it makes the perfect accompanyment!
