Panisses are deep-fried chickpea flour chips that are ideal for dipping in tapenade as a Provençal substitute for fries and ketchup. Make the panisses ahead of time since the batter must cool and solidify before being cut and cooked.
Note: To give time for the panisses to cool, start this recipe at least 6 hours before you intend to dine, or even the day before.
Methods Explained in Detail

Step No 1
You’ll need a small baking pan that’s 20cm square and coated with cling film that’s firmly pushed into the corners.

Step No 2
In a saucepan, boil 1 litre of water and the butter over medium heat. Bring to a moderate simmer, then rapidly sift in the chickpea flour, allowing the butter to melt. As the mixture thickens, use a whisk to rapidly beat it for a couple of minutes. Reduce to a low heat, season to taste, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool after scraping into the prepared pan and leveling with a spatula (the mixture should be approximately 1cm thick). Refrigerate the pan for at least 6 hours or overnight once it has cooled.

To make the tapenade, combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until smooth. If preferred, season with a bit extra red wine vinegar or black pepper. Scoop into a dish and cover with cling film; set aside at room temperature for an hour or two to allow flavors to blend; refrigerate for up to 3 days.

To make the panisses, flip out the now solid block onto a chopping board and cut into 10 x 2cm fingers with a sharp knife. In a deep fat fryer, heat the oil to 180°C/350°F and fry in batches for 5 minutes, or until deep golden brown and crisp. Drain in a dish lined with paper towels and repeat until all of them are done.
