The perfect bread is the SICILIAN MAFALDE, based on semola and with a lot of sesame. Take a look at this VIDEO TUTORIAL and let's see if you feel like being clumsy in the house. In Sicily, the fritters of chickpea flour are eaten regularly in a soft bun and covered with sesame seeds, or simply with a little hot’ salt and lemon juice. Of course the best thing is to eat the fritters Palermo walking through the streets of the market Ballarò, as I suggest in my journey to discover the Arab-Norman Palermo But if you can not go there in time for dinner, then touches you prepare at home, perhaps along with some of my other SICILIAN RECIPES. Have a good day! Portions: 8 Preparation: cooking: Nutrition facts:250 calories20 fat Rating: 5.0/5 ( 3 voted ) Pin Print 500 grams of flour 1,5 liters of water chopped parsley or wild fennel salt and pepper peanut oil for frying Before preparing the palermitan chickpea panels, look carefully at my VIDEO RECIPE where I explain all the tricks for perfect panels. Put the chickpea flour in a large saucepan and slowly add the cold water, beating well and fast with a whip, so as not to form lumps. When flour and water are mixed forming a cream, add salt and bring to the boil over low heat: the mixture will have to cook for at least 30 minutes. You should always mix and on the bottom, as for the polenta, because otherwise the mixture tends to attack. As it begins to come away from the sides of the pot, will be ready. Add the pepper and chopped parsley (or chopped wild fennel). If necessary, season with salt. Spread the mixture for chickpea fritters on kitchen counter lined with parchment paper and, using a spatula, bring it to a height of 3-5 mm at most. Allow to cool completely. Once the mixture has cooled, cut Panelle chickpea into rectangles of about 5 centimeters by 6. Fry the fritters Palermo in abundant seed oil. Serve hot, with some piece of lemon. Bon appétit! MATCHING: For a classic Sicilian street food like the panelle, We suggest a fine pairing: The Prior, a winery in Valdobbiadene prosecco superiore Docg Banda. It is a Brut prosecco with fruit notes such as green apple and citrus fruits, ideal for aperitif and perfect with frying and soft creaminess of chickpea flour. You tried this recipe?

Hi Silvana! What a pleasure to meet you! I'm glad you like my recipes! The panelle are traditionally with parsley, but I don't see why not try in season, even Basil! Your Italian is great. I wish you a good trip, Rome is beautiful at this time. See you soon, ADA
