Ingredients

• Kidney Beans - I love the convenience of pantry-friendly canned beans. I have used red kidney beans in this recipe but we also love this recipe with cannellini beans.
• Olive oil - adds a depth of flavor to these roasted beans. You can also use neutral oil if you like
• Spices - antioxidant and anti-inflammatory-rich turmeric, red chili powder, and garam masala adds perfect heat, while amchur powder (dry mango powder) adds a hint of tangy flavor

How to Make Roasted Kidney Beans

• Drain and rinse the kidney beans. Gently dab over with a paper towel to remove the excess moisture from the beans. Add the beans to a medium mixing bowl. Add olive oil and all the spices. Mix well coating the spices on the beans (photos 1 - 4)

• Spread the spiced beans in the air fryer basket in one layer. Air fry at 380 F for 15 minutes shaking the basket halfway through (photos 5 - 6). Please check the notes on the recipe card for oven instructions.

Serving

Serve as a snack or appetizer, either on their own or alongside a dipping sauce such as tamarind chutney or cucumber raita. We love to simply snack on these crispy beans but they can also be served as a salad or soup topping. I often top them on my cucumber salad for added proteins.

Storing

Cool the crispy beans completely. Store in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Great snack for kids or work and a perfect alternative to fried snacks.
