Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Pat the chickpeas very dry with a clean tea towel. Dry chickpeas go crisp.

  2. 2

    Tip them onto a large baking tray with the oil, paprika, garlic granules, cumin and salt. Toss well.

  3. 3

    Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, shaking the tray halfway, until deep golden and crunchy when you bite one.

  4. 4

    Squeeze over the lemon juice and toss. Leave to cool for 5 minutes, they crisp up more as they cool.

  5. 5

    Eat the same day. They soften if kept in a sealed tub overnight.
