    Title: Chilli Roasted Chickpeas
    Categories: Snacks
    Yield: 4 Servings

    400 g Tin chickpeas; drained
    2 tb Oil
    Salt; a few pinches
    1/4 ts Chilli powder or
    - dried chilli flakes

    These chickpeas make for a tasty little snack, and once you have the
    hang of them, you can vary the flavours to use whatever you have to
    hand. A splash of lemon juice to taste works well, 1/4 ts ground
    cumin is nice, and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper is good,
    too. For a more substantial meal, use them to top a warm winter
    salad, or toss with scraps of meat and a loose tomato sauce for a
    quick dinner.

    Preheat the oven to 180?C (fan 160?C/350?F/gas 4).

    Give the chickpeas a good thorough rinse under the cold tap to get
    rid of the "tinny" taste. You can retain the liquid from the tin.

    Tip the chickpeas into a mixing bowl and add the oil. Sprinkle over
    the salt and chilli and jostle the bowl gently to cover them all in
    oil and flavour. Tip them onto a baking tray or roasting tin--one
    with a lip around the edge, not a flat baking sheet, else they'll
    just roll off again!

    Pop the tray into the oven for 30 minutes, removing it halfway
    through and shaking it gently to stop the chickpeas sticking and
    burning. Best served immediately.
