After grinding cumin seeds, take a pan and add lightly cooked mustard oil in it . Do not cook the oil too much, cook it just enough so that it does not taste raw. Now take out the oil in a bowl and add turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder and salt and mix it well. Now add ginger-garlic paste to the mixture and mix it too. If you find the mixture thick, then add some water to it and after mixing it well, add boiled gram to it.
Mix the paste prepared from chickpeas and spices and add gram flour or refined flour to it and mix it. Doing this will help in making your chickpeas crispy.
On the other hand, take a pan and heat oil in it well. Add chickpeas little by little in hot oil and fry them till they become crispy. While frying, do not forget to add garlic cloves in the oil, it can help in enhancing the taste.
Finally, when the chickpeas become crispy, take them out in a plate and add
lemon juice to it and mix. Before serving, sprinkle chaat masala on the chickpeas and you can also use coriander for decoration. You can serve it hot with morning breakfast, lunch or in the evening with tea-coffee.
