Ceci fritti croccanti

Ingredienti

• 3 tablespoons oil ((canola or olive oil work well))
• 14 ounces chickpeas ((cooked) drained out of a can and dried well on kitchen paper)
• flavourings of choice (e.g 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper, paprika, herbs, garlic or onion powder (optional))

Preparazione

1. 1

   Heat the oil in a frying pan or similar until a chickpea dropped into it starts to sizzle.

2. 2

   Drizzle a tiny bit of oil over the chickpeas and toss with your choice of spices or leave plain.

3. 3

   Add the chickpeas to the pan, preferably in one layer, and mostly cover them with a lid or other pan cover. If cooking in air fryer, toss with about 1 tablespoon of oil and your choice of seasonings and cook for about 15 minutes at 390F/200C. Shake 2 or 3 times during cooking.

4. 4

   Let cook until golden and crispy, shaking the pan every now and again (about 15 minutes).

5. 5

   Drain briefly on kitchen paper, then scatter over the flavourings (if using).

6. 6

   Serve immediately on a salad, in a soup, on a pizza, or simply in a bowl for people to snack on.
