Ingredients

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk chickpea flour, water, 1 tablespoon oil, cumin, and salt until smooth. Rest for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mix tomato, cucumber, parsley, and lemon juice in a bowl.

  3. 3

    Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and brush with a little of the remaining oil.

  4. 4

    Pour in a thin layer of batter and tilt the pan. Cook until the surface looks dry, then flip and cook for 30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Repeat with the remaining batter and fill each crepe with the tomato mixture just before serving.

Cooking Tips

  • Whisk the rested batter again because chickpea flour settles.
  • Keep the filling separate until serving to prevent soggy crepes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare savory chickpea crepes with herbs ahead?

Prepare components in advance where practical, but use the final cooking and resting steps for the best texture. Cool perishable ingredients promptly and store them covered in the refrigerator.

How should I adjust the seasoning?

Whisk the rested batter again because chickpea flour settles. Taste near the end and make small adjustments rather than adding a large amount at once.
