Directions
Algerian Garantita / Karanteta – Chickpea / Garbanzo Souffle, Garantita is one of the most famous dishes in Algeria It is made in every home & is a very popular ‘fast food’ Traditionally, it is cooked until just firm around the edges, golden on top & nice and squishy in the middle (a BIT like souffle), then sliced (with difficulty!) & placed in a baguette with harissa Chickpea flour is readily available in all Indian grocers (also known as Besan) or in Middle Eastern grocers You can also make your own by grinding dry chick peas This is our much requested family recipe , After many attempts and many recipes before this one, I can say that this is thee best recipe for true Algerian garantita I have made Thank you soooo much Excellent taste, consistency, look! Love it My family loves it It disappears really fast I have made it about a dozen times already in the last few months Thank you!, This is good for something so different to us!!! I thought the batter was too thin but it worked I made my own ground chickpea flour, canola oil because I find the unrefined sunflower oil I have to have a sunflower seed taste I don’t much like, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, plus the rest of the ingredients Except upon serving I personally just ate it with a fork instead of bread as we are gluten and yeast free Made for Welcome to Algeria!%u200F
