​FRITTERS
INGREDIENTS

1 cup chickpea (garbanzo bean) flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika
¾ cup hot water
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chopped fresh arugula leaves
1 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 large scallion, thinly sliced
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
 
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, combine chickpea flour, sea salt and paprika.  Gradually add hot water while whisking to make a smooth batter.  Cover bowl and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.  Stir in the baking soda, arugula, chickpeas and scallions.  Mix well.
 
Preheat oven to 250°.  Have an oven safe platter lined with paper towel ready.  Heat olive oil in a heavy large skillet.  Once a small amount of batter dropped in the pan sizzles, ladle in ¼-cup portions to the hot oil (a medium cookie scoop works well).  Cook for about 3 minutes per side, turning fritters carefully.  Remove from oil to paper towel-lined platter.  Keep fritters warm in oven while cooking the remaining batter, adding a little oil to the pan if needed.  Serve immediately with Mojo Sauce and pair with Nisia Old Vine Verdejo.
