Serves: 6

1 1/2 cups chickpea flour

1/4 tsp black salt (available at Indian grocers, optional)
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp dill, dried or freshly chopped

1 cup Swiss chard, finely chopped
1 cup onion or shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
3 Tbsp olive oil

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a wide cast iron pan (recommended) or cake pan.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, sea salt, black salt, turmeric, baking powder, dill and cayenne pepper and stir. Add water and whisk until no lumps remain. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and let the batter rest.

Bake for 20-30 minutes, uncovered until batter is set and top is beginning to crack and brown a bit. Drizzle top with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and gently brush on. Return to oven for 5 more minutes.
