Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpea flour and roast, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until it turns slightly darker, forms crumbly lumps and starts to stick together.
  2. Meanwhile, bring 1 cup of water to a boil.
  3. Add the nuts, currants and salt to the roasted flour and cook for 2 more minutes. Stir in the sugar and cardamom seeds.
  4. Add 1/2 cup of the boiling water and mix well. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of water and keep stirring vigorously until the mixture is smooth and custard-like, breaking up lumps (whisk if lumps persist after 1 to 2 minutes). Cook for about 3 minutes, then remove from heat.
  5. Garnish with sliced nuts. Serve warm or cold. Store airtight at room temperature for a few hours, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
