I haven’t made this one yet, but I will eventually. It sounds good:
Roasted Chickpeas

Here’s a Thai dish that’s simple enough for me to make pretty often:
Garbanzo Massaman curry
2 Tbsp canola oil
3 small onions, diced
8 oz. sliced mushrooms
1 bell pepper, diced
2 cans garbanzos
1 can coconut milk
4 oz. Massaman curry paste
1 tsp red chili powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp fish sauce
Heat oil in wok until shimmering
Add onions, mushrooms, bell pepper, and a pinch of kosher salt.
Fry until starting to brown.
Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Simmer for 5 minutes.
You may want to omit the cayenne, as the curry paste provides quite a bit of spice on its own.
I make a nice chickpea sausage kale soup. Those three ingredients (I use Italian sausage but I think it would be good as a vegetarian recipe as well), whatever kind of stock or broth you want, maybe some onions. Potatoes if you want, and plenty of pepper.
My soup recipes are pretty flexible…
