4 steps

1. 1Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the chickpeas on a clean towel and gently rub them dry, removing any loose skins. The drier they are, the crispier they get.
2. 2Toss with the olive oil, spices and salt, then spread in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.
3. 3Roast for 25 to 35 minutes, shaking the pan halfway, until deep golden and crunchy.
4. 4Let them cool on the pan for 10 minutes; they keep crisping as they cool.
