- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

- Pour the batter into a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously for about 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

- Once cooled, cut the mixture into squares or rectangles according to your preference.
