- 2 tsp olive oil
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic salt
Method
- Heat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.

- While chickpeas are roasting, defrost edamame by placing them in a microwave-safe container and microwaving on high for 3-5 mins, or you can thaw in hot water.
- Remove the chickpeas from the oven and gently shake and continue roasting for a further 10-15 mins, or until golden brown.
- Dry edamame beans between the paper towel and add to the baking tray, and toss with the roasted chickpeas until well combined.
