Steps:
- Drain, rinse, and spread chickpeas on paper towels. Let air-dry for 1 hour, then pat dry.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Pour oil onto a rimmed baking sheet and preheat in oven for 10 minutes. Carefully remove pan from oven and add chickpeas. Toss to coat. Roast, stirring a few times, until golden and crispy, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then toss in a bowl with garam masala, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Chickpeas can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.
CHICKPEA NIBBLES AND CRUNCHY SPLIT PEA BITES
Loaded with folate, iron, and B vitamins, chickpeas and split peas are also high in protein and fiber. Here they combine to make a satisfying mid-afternoon snack; you can also serve either of them as an easy hors d'oeuvre, alongside a bowl of olives.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Pat chickpeas dry, then toss in a bowl with oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste), and the chili powder. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until crunchy, stirring occasionally, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool before serving. Peas may be kept in an airtight container for 3 days at room temperature.
- Place split peas in a large bowl; add the water and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let soak at room temperature until softened, 4 to 5 hours.
- Drain split peas and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add 2 teaspoons of each type of oil. Add half the peas and cook, stirring frequently, until they begin to turn golden brown in spots and become crunchy, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste). Repeat with the remaining oil and peas. Let cool before serving. Peas may be kept for 3 days in an airtight container at room temperature.
