I haven't made a curry with them, but I have tried illumi chickpea and vegetable curry which is delicious and has no crap in them:

I know you wanted recipes, but perhaps grab the ingredient list and experiment with different combos? might be able to knock up a nice curry that way?

If you like Indian food, my sister does a mean chana massala but its a closely guarded recipe. However I do use an the following site a lot and their recipe looks pretty good as well

I mostly use canned chickpeas as an addition to a tossed salad.

I only use canned chickpeas so I'm not sure how you'd prepare them before hand but here is a recipe I love. I replace sultanas with chopped up dates, and only use 1 tbsp of mayo. I eat it on its own. So good!

This recipe is delicious. I just eat it straight out of the bowl as is, and I omit the cucumbers.

I really like this one:

Spiced Chickpeas with Potatoes and Tomatoes

Ingredients
1 medium uncooked potato(es), peeled and cut into 1⁄2-inch cubes
1/4 cup(s) dry lentils, red variety, picked over, rinsed, and drained
4 tsp canola oil
1 medium uncooked onion(s), chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
1/4 tsp garam masala
1 tsp Cumin seeds
1 pound(s) plum tomato(es), chopped
15 1/2 oz canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained (I prefer using the dried ones)
1 Tbsp ginger root, peeled and minced
2 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s), minced
2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped
Instructions
Bring a medium saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the potato and cook until fork-tender, about 7 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving the cooking liquid.

Add the lentils to the same saucepan and return to a boil. Cook until the lentils are tender, 8 – 10 minutes; drain and set aside.

Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, jalapeño, garam masala, and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion begins to soften, 3 – 4 minutes. Stir in the potato, tomatoes, chickpeas, ginger, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften, 4 – 5 minutes. Stir in the lentils and cook until heated through. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro. Yields 1 cup per serving.

bump for the roasted chickpeas

Hummus is always nice and you can change it up with various additions like roasted garlic, roasted red peppers or this yummy Roasted Poblano Hummus.
