- Preparation: 10 min
- Cooking: 25 min
- Makes: 1 serving (70 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegan, Gluten-free, Dairy-free
Ingredients
- 25 g Chickpeas, dried
- 30 g Sugar
- 15 g Water
Method
- Soak the chickpeas overnight, then boil until tender, drain and pat completely dry; roast in a low oven or dry pan until dry and slightly crisp.
- Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a small pan and cook to a thick, thread-like syrup.
- Add the roasted chickpeas to the syrup and stir constantly over low heat until the syrup crystallizes into a dry, sugary coating on each chickpea.
- Spread on a tray to cool and harden completely before serving; this makes one portion, so multiply for a full batch.
