Is there a trick to getting it so perfectly round?
Hawaiian delicacy right there.The least fanciest thing one can do, besides drinking water. Felt like having spam for breakfast, so I cooked some. I think for me, KEY is to cut it about 4mm thick. If it's thinner, it gets to be a cracker, if it's thicker, it has too much soft inside. But, about 4mm it's crispy, and meaty, but not soft...

Final step: completely mess up taking picture of the final dish. Delish thoigh
That looks great. So great, in fact, that I must make it. I found the recipe on line, but I have two points of confusion that I'm hoping you may be able to clear up.I saw Pati Jinich make shrimp, bacon, and crispy chickpea tacos, so I gave it a try and they’re sooo good. I highly recommend making these

Dunno about the chickpeas. However the guajillos are almost certainly dried and rehydrated.That looks great. So great, in fact, that I must make it. I found the recipe on line, but I have two points of confusion that I'm hoping you may be able to clear up.
Are canned chickpeas OK? I mean, I'd do my usual trick of pouring boiling water over and rinsing in cold water, to eliminate the "canned" flavor. But I'm wondering whether you used dried, and whether one really should.
Does the guajillo chile have to be fresh, or is she talking about dried?
I used canned chickpeas. I just rinsed it off in a colander with cold water. And yes, the guajillos are dried.That looks great. So great, in fact, that I must make it. I found the recipe on line, but I have two points of confusion that I'm hoping you may be able to clear up.
