Crunchy Chickpeas
Ingredients
- 1 15 oz can of chickpeas
- 1 tbsp gochujang
- 1/2 tbsp oil
- 1/2 tbsp water
- 1/4 tsp salt (depends on sodium content of your canned chickpeas)
- chopped herbs to garnish (optional)
Gochujang version
- 1 tbsp gochujang
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp gochugaru
Garam masala version
- 1/2 tbsp garam masala
- 1/8 tsp amchoor powder (optional)
- pepper (~10-15 turns)
Recipe
- Mix everything except the chickpeas in a bowl, until combined
- Drain the chickpeas, rinse with water, then add to the sauce. Mix thoroughly to coat the chickpeas.
- Microwave for 5-10 minutes. 5 minutes makes them less crunchy and ideal for a meal, longer makes them crunchier as a snack.
Notes
- The dish leans kinda dry, and I recommend serving it either:
- a) make it very crunchy and serve it much like peanuts
- b) serve it on yogurt
- For yogurt, it’s ideally kinda flavored, so some recs:
- a) Chaat masala + yogurt
- b) Herbs (maybe even dried dill) + garlic powder + yogurt
