Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Pat chickpeas dry, then toss in a bowl with oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste), and the chili powder. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until crunchy, stirring occasionally, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool before serving. Peas may be kept in an airtight container for 3 days at room temperature.
- Place split peas in a large bowl; add the water and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let soak at room temperature until softened, 4 to 5 hours.
- Drain split peas and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add 2 teaspoons of each type of oil. Add half the peas and cook, stirring frequently, until they begin to turn golden brown in spots and become crunchy, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste). Repeat with the remaining oil and peas. Let cool before serving. Peas may be kept for 3 days in an airtight container at room temperature.
