Vegetable fritters

In a bowl, place 150 g of chickpea flour, a pinch of salt as desired; pour in 350 ml of lukewarm water and 2 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive oil and start mixing until a thick, smooth and homogeneous batter is formed. Incorporate 100 g of rehydrated pea flakes, 1 chopped onion, 1 courgette and 1 bell pepper cut into thin strips, add herbs, then mix well (if the batter is too runny, incorporate more flour, otherwise more water). Now you can cook the fritters, frying them in hot oil for 3-4 minutes. You can also bake them in a preheated oven at 180 °C for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
