Chickpea Fritters - Ancient Egyptian

"Ancient Egyptians, using available cooking oil and forgetting the Tabasco sauce and butter spray, might have enjoyed a very similar fried treat. Before serving you may use a spray butter topping on them if you like."

directions

  • Put all the ingredients except the oils in a food processor and pulse until just combined; do not over mix.
  • Remove the blade and, using a measuring spoon, scoop out level tablespoons of the mixture onto a plate covered with wax paper or coated with butter spray until you have approximately 30 little balls. Can be prepared up until this point and refrigerated until dinner time.
  • Warm the combination of sunflower and canola oil in a deep fryer (recommended) or in a heavy skillet. One at a time, drop 10 of the chick pea balls into the oil and fry for about 1-2 minutes, until they're golden brown and nice and crisp on the outside.
  • Remove with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel lined plate and keep warm in a 250 degree oven while you repeat the process two more times. Spray the fritters with butter topping and serve.
