salt and pepper (to taste)

freshly grated Parmigiano cheese

Steps:

PASTA WITH CHICKPEA SAUCE



Pasta With Chickpea Sauce image

This sauce is so rich and satisfying that you forget that it is vegetarian and quite healthy. I use homemade pappardelle, but any wide noodle or even lasagna noodles or any pasta of your choice will work just fine. With a salad and bread and wine and cheese, it's a lovely meal. Feel free to add more garlic and more chili pepper if you like.

1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 dried chili
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 onion, minced
1 tablespoon Italian parsley, minced
12 basil leaves, torn
1 bay leaf
3 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped (or 1 and 1/2 cups of canned diced tomatoes)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 lb pasta, cooked al dente (1/4 cup of pasta cooking water reserved)

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, ripe tomatoes and chickpeas will make a big difference in the flavor of your sauce.
  • Don't skimp on the garlic and onions: These aromatics add a lot of flavor to the sauce.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen.
