Baked Spicy Chickpeas



Today's recipe is going to be a simple baked spicy chickpeas.We love to munch the store bought deep fried version.
The baked version make it healthy and guilt free and the taste is close to the deep fried version.The same way green peas, black eyed peas and soya beans can be baked.But if its over baked the chickpeas became hard.So keep watching after 30 minutes of baking and turn in between atleast 3-4 time to ensure even baking.Here I soaked the chickpeas then pressure cooked and baked it.If you want to make it in a scratch use the canned garbanzo beans.Lets move on to the recipe............................................

    Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

    For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

    Paasiparuppu Dosa/Yellow Moong Dhal Dosa

    For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
