- Spice blend - All the spices in this recipe have been sourced from Burlap & Barrel. feel free to substitute with your favorite brand and use garlic powder, onion powder, cumin powder and Kashmiri chili powder.
- Chili oil - I like to use a chili-infused oil from vignoli. Feel free to substitute with your favorite brand or a different flavor.
- Crunchy chickpeas - My favorite brand is saffron road. They have chickpeas in 6 different flavors that work well with this recipe.
