Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 2 cups chickpeas drained and rinsed if using canned (see note, cooked
  • 3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt see note, sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon clove
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
  • 2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • black pepper for topping

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the cumin and coriander. Toast, shaking the pan often, until spices are fragrant. Place in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. Grind the spices.
  2. Return the pan to the stovetop, to medium-low heat. Add the olive oil, followed by the garlic. Cook garlic for 1 to 2 minutes, until golden. Add in the chickpeas and followed by the ground cumin/coriander smoked paprika, ginger, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and cayenne if using. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, just enough that the chickpeas are warm and start to turn golden.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the vinegar. Scrap the bottom of the pan to release some of the stuck spices.

Notes

  • Tips & Tricks:  If you only have ground spices, that's fine. Skip the toasting/grinding step and use the same amount of ground spices as the whole. Leave out the sesame seeds or use whole. 
  • I make my own chickpeas and store in 2 cup increments. Canned chickpeas are a little less but the amount in the can will still work with the spice amounts listed above.
  • I'm don't overly salt my chickpeas when I first cook them, so I find that I need to add salt to these spiced chickpeas. If you are using canned, taste before adding more salt
  • Stock up: get the pantry ingredients you will need: Chickpeas, Spices, Apple Cider Vinegar
