  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
  • 1 cup chickpea flour
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 lemon
  • ⅓ cup Greek yogurt

Chef's Tip
Two tricks to cooking socca are to let the batter sit for several minutes after mixing it and to give your pan plenty of time to heat. When ready to cook, allow the batter spread to the sides of the hot pan and let it cook longer on the first side, until almost set, then flip with confidence. Or pour in the batter to form 2- or 3-inch-wide pancakes and flip them individually.

Make It Ahead
The batter can be prepared up to 8 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate, then let stand at room temperature for about 10 minutes before cooking the pancakes.
Ingredient IQ
Made from ground chickpeas, chickpea flour is nutrient-dense and naturally gluten-free. It has a nutty flavor, is packed with plant protein and fiber—and makes a terrific pancake.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Make the socca batter

  • Strip the rosemary leaves from the stem; finely chop enough leaves to measure 1 teaspoon.
In a medium bowl, combine the chickpea flour, rosemary, cumin, 2 tablespoons oil, and 1 cup water; season generously with salt and pepper and whisk or stir until smooth (it should have the consistency of thin pancake batter). Let stand while you prepare the harissa yogurt and kale salad.

2

Make the harissa yogurt

  • Zest and juice the lemon, keeping the zest and juice separate (the juice will be divided between the yogurt and the salad); set aside the zest for the salad.
In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and as much harissa powder as you like; season to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand while you prepare the rest of the meal.

3

Make the kale–Marcona almond salad

  • Finely chop, press, or grate enough garlic to measure 2 teaspoons.
  • Coarsely chop the Marcona almonds.
In a large bowl, combine the kale with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, season generously with salt, and gently massage the leaves.
In a large frying pan over medium-low heat, warm 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the golden raisins and cook until warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper. Scrape the raisin mixture into the bowl with the kale; add the almonds and carrots and toss to coat. Wipe out the pan.

4

Cook the socca

In the same pan used for the raisin mixture, warm 2 to 3 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Using a ladle or large spoon, or pouring directly into the pan, add about half the batter to form a thin pancake that reaches the edges of the pan. Cook until bubbles have formed on top, the batter is just set, and the edges start to lift, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a wide spatula, carefully flip the socca and cook until lightly browned on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the socca to a plate. If desired, cut into triangles.
Repeat with the remaining batter; if the pan is dry, before adding the batter, heat 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking.

Serve

Transfer the socca to individual plates and serve with the kale salad and harissa yogurt.
