Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, onions)
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by finely chopping the mixed vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, and onions) into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour with water, whisking thoroughly to create a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be similar to a thin pancake mix.
- Add turmeric, salt, and pepper to the batter, stirring well to distribute the seasonings evenly throughout the mixture.
- Gently fold the chopped mixed vegetables into the batter, ensuring they are well-distributed and coated.
- Lightly grease the air fryer-safe casserole dish or baking pan with a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour the vegetable and chickpea flour mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly to create a uniform layer.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for approximately 3-4 minutes before cooking.
- Carefully place the casserole dish into the air fryer basket, ensuring it sits flat and stable.
- Cook the casserole for 20-25 minutes, checking periodically to prevent overcooking. The top should be golden and firm to the touch.
- Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the dish from the air fryer using heat-resistant mitts.
- Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes, which helps it set and makes cutting easier.
- Slice into 4 equal portions and serve warm as a nutritious and protein-rich meal.
Tips
- Whisk your chickpea flour batter thoroughly to eliminate any lumps, ensuring a smooth, consistent texture.
- Chop vegetables uniformly to guarantee even cooking and distribution throughout the casserole.
- Use fresh, crisp vegetables for maximum flavor and nutritional value.
- Don't skip preheating your air fryer—this ensures even cooking and helps achieve that golden, crispy top.
- Check the casserole periodically to prevent overcooking, as air fryer temperatures can vary slightly.
- Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to help it set and make slicing easier.
- Experiment with different vegetable combinations to keep the recipe exciting and tailored to your taste preferences.
