Equipment
- Mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 1½ cups cooked chickpeas (from one 15.5 oz can, or cooked from scratch with ½ cup dried chickpeas.)
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- ¼ to ½ teaspoon cayenne (or use paprika for less heat)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (skip if sensitive to heat as there is already cayenne in this recipe. Or skip the cayenne and use black pepper)
- ¼ teaspoon chaat masala (use 1 tablespoon lemon juice as a substitute)
- ½ tablespoon rice flour (or cornstarch)
- ½ tablespoon avocado oil or any neutral oil
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Place the chickpeas in a bowl and add the spices--garlic, turmeric, cayenne (or paprika), ground cumin, ground black pepper and chaat masala (or lemon).
- Add the rice flour (or cornstarch), vegetable oil and salt. Mix everything until every chickpea is coated with the spices.
- Place the chickpeas in the air fryer basket, preferably in a single layer so every chickpea roasts perfectly.
- Set the air fryer to 375 degrees F/190 degrees C for 12 minutes. Toss the chickpeas every four minutes so they roast evenly.
- Eat hot or warm or at room temperature!
