Excellent! A happy experiment for dinner tonight! My husband said it’s better than falafel, eating out or that I make into falafel waffles (gloppy batter, cooked for 12 minutes on a Belgian waffle iron). Which is great because it’s so simple to make. The little bit of cumin is a lovely addition.

I have made this in the past and it is delicious. I have also put herbs, such as rosemary in it or red pepper flakes, etc. I also like to sprinkle some parmesan on top when it’s almost done. So many ways to enjoy this Italian flatbread. Thanks!

Hi Kate, you obviously loved socca in Nice, I wonder if you also tried panisses in Marseille? Same kind of chickpea flour batter, but panisses are then (deep)fried. Please come and visit again if you haven’t!

Thank you Kate, for introducing me to Socca. This is the oven cooked version of what we call Chilla in India. Chilla can be made of chickpea flour or soaked and ground green lentils. It’s typically cooked on a griddle, and could have chopped onion and green pepper mixed in the batter. A great gluten free breakfast or savoury snack.
