Roasted Peas Food

ROASTED PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 175C / 350F and line a baking tray with baking paper or foil.
• Thaw the frozen peas, lay them on a clean dish towel/ paper towel and pat dry.
• Place peas in a mixing bowl, add the olive oil and sumac (or another flavouring you wish to use). Stir to coat the peas.
• Place peas on the prepared baking tray and spread out. Do not overcrowd the pan or the peas will steam and not roast well.
• Bake for 40 mins, checking on them every 10 mins and giving them a little shake to ensure even cooking. Keep a good eye on them after 30 mins for burning.
• Allow cooling on the baking tray before serving.

ROASTED CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Blot chickpeas with a paper towel to dry them. In a bowl, toss chickpeas with olive oil, and season to taste with salt, garlic salt, and cayenne pepper, if using. Spread on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until browned and crunchy. Watch carefully the last few minutes to avoid burning.

ROASTED CHICKPEAS 3 WAYS

Steps:

• For the chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put a few layers of paper towels on your work surface. Strain and rinse the chickpeas in a colander, then shake off as much water as possible. Transfer them to the paper towels, top with more paper towels, then pat them gently and roll them around a bit to dry. Discard any papery skins that have peeled off or are about to. Slide the chickpeas onto a large rimmed baking sheet, and let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Roast the chickpeas, stirring them occasionally to keep them from burning in spots, until a little shriveled and pretty crispy, about 45 minutes. Start checking them at around 35 minutes to make sure they are not burning.
• Meanwhile, make the seasoning mixes. For the Taco Seasoning: Mix the chili powder, coriander, cumin, granulated garlic and onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• For the Vinegar-Lime Seasoning: Mix the vinegar, lime zest and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• For the Onion-Garlic Seasoning: Mix the granulated garlic and onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• When the chickpeas are done, divide them evenly among 3 medium bowls. Toss each batch with 1 tablespoon of the oil, then toss 1 batch with each of the seasoning mixes.
• Return the chickpeas to the baking sheet, keeping each batch separate. Roast them for 3 minutes, just to cook the seasonings slightly. Let cool completely on the pan on a rack, about 30 minutes, then transfer to airtight containers. The chickpeas will keep for 1 day and will soften slightly as they sit.

ROASTED CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Place the chickpeas in a medium bowl and cover with 2 inches of water. Soak overnight.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Drain the chickpeas, return to the mixing bowl, and set aside. Place 1/4 cup vinegar, mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt into a small lidded container and shake vigorously to combine. Add the olive oil and shake to combine. Pour the dressing over the chickpeas and toss to combine. Spread the chickpeas on a half sheet pan and roast until the chickpeas are deep golden brown and crunchy, tossing every 15 minutes, for 60 to 65 minutes. Remove from the oven, return to the mixing bowl, add the remaining vinegar and salt, and toss to combine. Transfer back to the sheet pan and spread out to cool completely before serving as a snack.
