Panelle are a quintessential street food in Sicily, consisting of fried chickpea flour fritters that are often served on sesame seed rolls, offering a unique taste of Italian culture.
Making panelle involves simple ingredients such as chickpea flour, water, and salt, and the preparation process resembles that of polenta, making it accessible for home cooks.
Unlike its Genoan counterpart farinata, panelle can be enjoyed at room temperature and are typically served with lemon juice or inside a roll, often accompanied by potato croquettes.
The baked panelle sandwich recipe developed by Michelle Bottalico invites you to enjoy this Sicilian delicacy at home, highlighting that half of the two-hour cooking time is merely resting.
