Roasted Chickpeas

Roasted Chickpeas

 

One restless Monday evening, I was craving for something to munch and there was nothing in the pantry. I reached for the freezer and took out Mövenpick’s vanilla ice-cream. After a few half-hearted spoonfuls, I realized I wanted salty snacks and there was none in the house.

Suddenly, I thought, "Why not roast chickpeas?" I love chickpeas and I wonder how they taste roasted. A quick googling brought me to this and this site. Apparently, I wasn’t crazy. There is such thing as roasted chickpeas.

I used dried chickpeas so the snack was available only the next day. Mine didn’t turn out completely crispy: some were still soft in the centre. I’ll just have to play around with the temperatures and dryness to ensure that I get it right (I’ll put the notes later as an afterthought). You should too (and tell me, please…)
