Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Chickpea Omelette.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour and water, whisking them together until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 3
Next, stir in 2 tablespoons of olive oil, followed by a sprinkle of oregano, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and kala namak if you’re feeling adventurous.
Step 4
Mix everything well and set it aside for now.
Step 5
Now, grab an oven-safe nonstick skillet and heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Toss in the chopped onion, diced carrot, and sliced red bell pepper.
Step 7
Sauté these colorful veggies for about 5 minutes, or until the onion turns translucent and the vegetables start to soften, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 8
Once the veggies are looking good, add another tablespoon of olive oil and reduce the heat to medium.
Step 9
It’s time to introduce the zucchini slices! Cook them for 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring they’re spread out in a single layer, until they’re tender and lightly browned.
Step 10
Then, layer the radicchio on top and cover the skillet.
Step 11
Let it cook for about a minute, allowing the radicchio to wilt without stirring the vegetables—this helps keep everything beautifully arranged.
Step 12
Give your chickpea mixture a quick stir, then pour it evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet, starting from the center and working your way outward.
Step 13
Let it cook on medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set, creating a lovely base for your dish.
Step 14
Now, it’s time to transfer the skillet to your preheated oven.
Step 15
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the top is firm and the edges start to pull away from the sides.
Step 16
For that perfect golden finish, turn on the broiler and let it broil for an additional 2 minutes—watching closely to avoid any burning.
Step 17
Once it’s done, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it sit uncovered for about a minute.
Step 18
Use a rubber spatula to gently loosen the edges.
Step 19
To flip the omelette, place a large plate over the skillet and invert it, allowing the omelette to land gracefully on the plate.
Step 20
Let it cool for 2 to 3 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Step 21
Serve it warm and enjoy the delicious flavors you’ve created!.
