Roasted
Roasted chickpeas are cooked pulses dried and roasted until crisp outside—a high-protein snack and salad topper with nutty flavour. Oil and spice coatings (cumin, chilli, smoked paprika) cling well. Start from well-dried cooked chickpeas; roast hot until they rattle and brown. They soften as they sit, so eat soon or re-crisp briefly in a hot oven. Oven and air-fryer methods both work.
