Oven Roasted Garbanzo beans / Chickpeas
Oven roasted chickpeas are my all time favourite teatime snack. This is healthy since it is rich in proteins and it uses less oil as it is roasted in oven. I always love to munch these roasted pulses. Green vatana is my favourite and I made the roasted green peas for the first time. But it was roasted extra and I corrected all the mistakes I done while doing it. Then for the next time I made these and it is super hit and perfect. There are some important points to be considered while roasting these so that they dont fail.Please check my other baked snacks Baked GujiyaBaked fingermillet crisps / Ragi crisps
