PREPARATION
These steps are followed for the preparation of Crispy Oven Roasted Edamame Savoury Snack:
- Preheat The Oven: Preheat the oven to 180° Celsius and line a baking tray with parchment paper. Preparing the tray in advance ensures the edamame roasts evenly without sticking.
- Rinse And Dry: Wash the edamame thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry completely with a paper towel, because excess moisture prevents them from crisping properly.
- Season: Place the edamame in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt and toss until every edamame is evenly coated for balanced flavour.
- Spread On Tray: Spread the seasoned edamame in a single layer on the lined baking tray. Leaving space between them helps achieve a consistent golden crispness.
- Roast: Place the tray in the oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir once halfway through to ensure even roasting and continue until the edamame turn golden and crispy.
- Cool And Serve: Allow the roasted edamame to cool slightly before eating. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for a portable and crunchy snack later in the day.

- Customise Flavours: Add your favourite spices such as garlic powder, smoked paprika or chilli flakes for added variety.
- Watch Closely: Keep an eye on the edamame during the last few minutes of roasting to avoid burning.
