TIPS

  • Extra crispiness: For crispier chickpeas, dry them thoroughly before roasting.
  • More flavour: Add a squeeze of lemon juice or balsamic glaze before serving.
  • Make it spicier: Increase the paprika or add cayenne pepper for an extra kick.
  • Even roasting: Spread the Brussels sprouts and chickpeas evenly on the tray to avoid steaming.
  • Storage tip: Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best results.

VARIATIONS

  • Garlic-Parmesan Version: Sprinkle nutritional yeast or vegan parmesan for a cheesy flavour.
  • Asian-Inspired: Toss with sesame oil and soy sauce instead of olive oil and paprika.
  • Lemon-Herb: Add fresh rosemary and a squeeze of lemon juice after roasting.
  • Curry-Flavoured: Use curry powder instead of paprika for a unique twist.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freezing: Not recommended, as Brussels sprouts can become soggy when reheated.
  • Reheating: Warm in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes to maintain crispiness.
