Crispy chickpeas

Sourced from https://youtu.be/5EU76q3Vf3Q

This makes for decently crispy chickpeas, with not that much effort. Chickpeas are also very cheap and quite a healthy alternative as far as snacks go.

I place a paper towel below and above the chickpeas while microwaving to avoid any chickpeas exploding and messing up my microwave oven. Varying the spices allows for good variety in the snacking experience.

Ingredients

  • 1 can of chickpeas
  • Some frying oil
  • Any spice mix you like

Steps

  1. Drain and rinse the chickpeas
  2. Place a paper towel on a large plate, put the chickpeas on top, then another paper towel
  3. Microwave for 10 minutes
  4. Heat some oil in a frying pan
  5. Pan-fry the chickpeas
  6. Add spices

I have questions: why microwave before frying? (regardless of the 10 minute time) are you drying them out? would dehydration work the same or if you dont have one leave on towles uncovered in the refrigerator overnight work as well?
