Recipe Archives->Beans Cereals->Spicy Chickpeas

Ceci

1 lb garbanzo beans
1/2 c unsalted butter
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp garlic, minced
2 tbsp curry powder
1 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp ginger
salt to taste

Soak, rinse, and cook chick peas.  Do not allow beans to get too
soft.  When tender but still firm, remove from heat and drain well.
Pat dry.

Preheat oven to 375F.  Melt butter in medium-sized saucepan over
low heat.  Add vegetable oil and garlic and allow to sit for 5
minutes, keeping warm.

Pour butter into large baking tray with sides.  Spread dried chick
peas on tray.  Bake 15 minutes, turning frequently, or until chick
peas are golden.

While chick peas are baking, combine spices and herbs.  When chick
peas are done, remove from oven and sprinkle with herbs and spices
and toss to coat.  Serve warm.
