When roasted, chickpeas take on the flavour and texture of nuts,
making them a fun snack at only 76 Kcals and 1g fat per serving.
• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan/Gas 4 and line a baking tray
with baking paper.
• Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly and use paper towels to
dry them off as much as possible.
• Toss the chickpeas with olive oil until all the chickpeas are well coated.
• Spread the chickpeas out in an even layer on the baking tray.
• Roast the chickpeas in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring them
every 10 minutes. A few chickpeas may pop – that’s normal. The
chickpeas are done when golden and slightly darkened, dry and crispy
on the outside, and soft in the middle.
• Toss the chickpeas with the spices and stir to coat evenly.
• Serve while the chickpeas are still warm and crispy. They will gradually
lose their crispiness as they cool, becoming addictively chewy.
