Ensure your pre-soaked and boiled chickpeas are completely dry. This is crucial for achieving maximum crispiness. You can pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Place the dried chickpeas in a large bowl. Spray them generously with oil spray, ensuring they are lightly coated.

Add the paprika (or chili powder) and salt (or your preferred seasoning) to the bowl with the chickpeas. Shake the bowl vigorously to thoroughly coat all the chickpeas evenly with the oil and spices.

Transfer the seasoned chickpeas into the air fryer basket, spreading them in a single layer as much as possible to allow for even cooking.

Air fry the chickpeas at 195°C for 15 minutes. Remember to shake the air fryer basket every 5 minutes during the cooking process to ensure even crisping.

Once air-fried and crispy, transfer the chickpeas to a serving bowl or directly onto a plate with the fresh green chilies and curry leaves. Serve immediately as a crunchy, spicy, and high-protein snack.
