    They are delicious and if you get them crunchy, another level is achieved in flavor!!

    Wow, I am really surprised that this is the new thing!

    My mum has given me soo many packs bought back from India that I didn't just eat! I have a whole container that I will slowly get through.

    I have found them to be pretty plain, but the usual Indian snack is to mix peanuts with them. I think it has a sprinkling of salt, but thats about it!

    I eat roasted chickpeas everyday! I use this receipe but change up the seasoning. I usually season with McCormick's Grill Mates Brown Sugar Bourbon, or just with garlic and a little salt. I tried a receipe for salt and vinegar once but it was too much vinegar for me (wasn't like the salt and vinegar potato chips I used to eat). The great thing about roasted chickpeas is that you can add any seasoning you want and you get the crunch like eating junk food.

    ETA: If you taste once and they are still a slightly mushy texture then just leave them in the oven for a little while longer until they are crunchy. I usually put them in for 15 minutes, then take them out and drizzle/spray with olive oil and season and put back in the oven for another 30 minutes. Then let them coolin the oven with the door open for a little longer. Just taste test them a few times. You don't want them soft or too crunchy or they really dry out.

    I make them ALL the time! 2 cans, rinsed and patted dry in my oven at 375 for about an hour....then *WHILE STILL HOT* tossed with 2 T EVOO, 1/4c parmesan, 1 t garlic powder, and a touch of salt and pepper.

    Amazing.



    Protip: DON'T add any spices prior to roasting. They will burn.

    Bump to save instructions, they sound yummy...thanks for sharing

    I love roasted chickpeas! They taste really good and they're a great healthy alternative to crisps/ other unhealthy savoury snacks.
    I use Cassey Ho's recipe from blogalites! http://www.blogilates.com/blog/2011/03/02/roasted-chickpeas/

    I have made them a few times but can't seem to get them to the right crunch level. Any tips would be appreciated. Chickpeas in any form is one of my favorite things to eat.

    They aren't too shabby depending on how you season them. I swear the seasoning makes or breaks them.

    garbanzo is a UK company who do three versions of them like sweet chilli etc. Really good, but I might try making my own too XD

    Did it a few years ago. Did something wrong. Half were burnt and the other half didn't get crispy...

    That's what happened with mine last week...
