Preheat the oven to 180C/356F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drain and rinse the lupin beans, transfer them to the baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil, season with ground cumin and chili flakes, and toss to coat evenly.
Roast for 20 minutes until crunchy, then remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
