Roasted Tandoori Chickpeas is an easy and simple snack with less oil. It is a perfect snack for an evening with a cup of tea/ coffee and also for travelling. The process of making these pan-fried chickpeas is so easy with the basic ingredients that are readily available in the kitchen pantry. For this recipe just combine yoghurt with spices and then add cooked peas. Marinate for 10 -15 minutes and cook in a frying pan.
You can prepare these fried chickpeas even with store brought tin, but I prefer to use freshly cooked peas in the home. I usually cook a lot at once and allow them to cool before freezing them in small individual packs. This way it becomes very handy, in case if you forgot to soak Chana.
