Instructions
Bring water to a boil
Heat the water in a pan until it reaches a rolling boil.
Add chickpea flour and mix
Add all the chickpea flour at once into the boiling water, then stir vigorously with a wooden spoon or whisk until the mixture starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
Cool the dough
Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool until it is just warm enough to handle.
Shape the nuggets
With slightly damp hands, divide the cooled dough and form into nuggets, patties, or any desired shape.
Fry or bake the nuggets
Fry the nuggets in a little oil until golden, or bake at 200°C for 15 minutes for a lower-fat version.
