Chana Roasted (300gm) Crunchy Chickpeas, Protein-Rich Snack, Lightly Salted, Perfect for Tea Time & Healthy Snacking

Roasted chana (chickpeas) is that crunchy, nutty snack your dad munches with evening chai. These aren't soft boiled chickpeas - they're roasted until hard and crispy, with a satisfying crunch that's almost addictive. Slightly salty, naturally protein-rich, way healthier than chips or fried snacks. Old-school Indian snack that's having a moment because people finally realized it's actually good for you. Tastes like roasted nuts but it's legumes, so you can feel slightly virtuous while snacking.

Why Roasted Chana is Better Than Chips

Simple math: roasted chana has protein, fiber, almost no fat. Chips have... salt and oil. Roasted chana keeps you full longer because protein and fiber actually satisfy hunger. Plus it's crunchy enough to scratch that snack itch. Sure, it's not as exciting as loaded nachos, but for everyday snacking, it's the smart choice that doesn't taste like punishment.

What Good Roasted Chana Looks Like

Quality roasted chana should be golden-brown, uniformly sized, and hard-crunchy (not soft or chewy). They should smell slightly nutty and toasted, not burnt or stale. Bite one - should be crunchy all the way through. If they're soft or taste stale, either they absorbed moisture or they're old. Good ones should be dry, crunchy, and fresh-tasting.

Questions About Roasted Chana

1. Is roasted chana the same as chickpeas?

Yes, same thing. Chana is Hindi/Urdu for chickpeas. These are kabuli chana (white chickpeas) that are roasted until crunchy. Not the small brown kala chana - different variety.

2. Can I eat roasted chana every day?

Sure, it's healthy. A handful (about 30-40g) as a snack is great. But don't eat the whole bag in one sitting - they're calorie-dense. Moderation is key.

3. Is roasted chana good for weight loss?

Can help because it's filling and relatively low-calorie compared to fried snacks. The protein and fiber keep you satisfied. But it's not magic - eat reasonable portions, not handfuls every hour.

4. Why is my roasted chana soft?

Moisture got in. Roasted chana should be bone-dry and crunchy. If it absorbed humidity (Dubai problem), it goes soft. Keep sealed tight. You can re-roast in oven to crisp them up.

5. Can diabetics eat roasted chana?

Generally yes - low glycemic index, good fiber. But portion control matters. Check with your doctor, especially if blood sugar is tricky to manage.

6. Is roasted chana good for gym/protein?

Decent protein snack, yeah. Not as high-protein as protein bars, but natural and with fiber. Good pre or post-workout snack, or between meals. Just watch portions.

7. Can kids eat roasted chana?

Yes, but supervise young kids - they're hard and crunchy, choking hazard for little ones. Better than giving them chips though. Most kids like the crunch.

8. How long does roasted chana last?

In airtight container, 2-3 months easily. They're dry, so they last well. If they get soft or taste stale, either moisture got in or they're old.

9. Can I make roasted chana at home?

You can! Soak dried chickpeas overnight, dry completely, roast in oven at low temp until crunchy. Takes forever though. Buying is way easier.

10. Why add to salads?

Adds protein, crunch, and makes salad more filling. Better than croutons - more nutrition, similar crunch. Crush them a bit so they mix better.

11. Are these keto-friendly?

Not really - too many carbs. Chickpeas aren't low-carb. If you're strict keto, skip these. If you're more flexible low-carb, small portions might fit.

12. Where can I buy quality roasted chana in Dubai?

Indian/Pakistani grocery stores always have them. Lulu, local spice shops. Look for golden color and make sure they're crunchy, not soft. Health food stores sometimes carry them too. We deliver fresh roasted chana across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah.
