I always love to munch something on... that too, weekend evenings... I book marked this post on oven roasted chickpeas by our lovely blogger friend Suma @ Veggie Platter long ago. But now only got the perfect time to prepare it. Its really very tasty and crunchy. I wanted a extra bit spiciness and tangy taste in it and so added tikka masala too. Thank you Suma, for sharing the wonderful recipe.
Ingredients
- Chickpeas / Konda kadalai - 1 cup
- Salt - as per taste
- Olive oil - 1 tsp
- Chilli powder - 1 tsp
- Tikka masala - 1 tsp
- Turmeric powder - a pinch (optional)
Method
- Soak Chickpeas overnight.
- Add little salt (a pinch) and Pressure cook it for 3 to 4 whistles.
 |  |
- When it is cooked, drain the water or store it and it can be used to prepare rasam.
- Take a baking tray and cover with aluminium foil.
- Now spread the cooked chickpeas.
 |  |
- Add the chilli powder, tikka masala, turmeric powder, salt and mix well.
- Now either spray the oil over the chickpeas, or add oil and mix thoroughly.
 |  |
- Keep the oven in 150 deg C, and place the tray in the first rack.
- After 15 min, take out the tray and give a stir. After that, for each 10 min, take out the tray and give a stir.
 |  |
- Repeat the process, till the chickpeas turns into light brown colour.
- Take out, cool it and roasted chickpeas is ready to munch on or store in a air tight container.
Note:
- Any cooking oil can be used.
- Turmeric is optional.
- I added, tikka masala, for extra spiciness and tangy taste. It is purely optional. Original recipe, does not have it.

wow ! these look so crisp.
had a question : since you boiled and then baked , is it crispy , or part crispy and how long does it stay ?
Very healthy snack
Hi... The chickpeas was crispy as I kept stirring for each and every 5 minutes... And stayed food for 2 days as I stored in air tight container and within 2 days all finished.
I think if we do in larger quantity, and if crispness reduces, we can bake for another 4 or 5 min to make it crispier again. This is just a suggestion as I have done my chickpeas in less quantity. next time i will try with large quantity.
You yum, my favourite snack! Food event and giveaway at mt blog: http://annarasaessenceoffood.blogspot.com/2013/03/food-event-your-favourite-street-food.html
