Roasted Chana is a healthy tea time snack that is very simple to make. These crispy crunchy chickpeas can not only serve as munchies but can also be tossed into to a lip smacking chat.

It is so simple to make and you can flavour it with any spice of your choice . Cumin, Coriander, chilly, garam masala or just some salt.

I am a part Culinary Council of KitchenAid India. And the recipe for Roasted Chana is my contribution to their Blog. Hence i have mostly used KitchenAid Products.
