Stracci and chickpeas

Ingredients for 4 people

Method

  • 160 gr of Stracci
  • 250 g of dried chickpeas
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 bunch of fresh parsley (or rosemary)
  • Salt to taste.

First of all soak the dried chickpeas with a teaspoon of baking soda for about 12h. Then fry them in a large pot garlic cloves previously peeled and crushed with the oil for 1 minute. Add the chickpeas, let them brown in the pan over high heat turning for a minute. Add the chopped parsley or rosemary, dilute with 3 glasses of water and cook for about 40 – 50 minutes with lid until soft. Finally, take 1 ladle full of chickpeas and set aside. 

Then add about 2 glasses of water to the pot, bring to the boil and add the pasta. At this point, cook on very low heat above all, turn often, so that the pasta does not stick to the bottom e turns out to be creamy. The final result must be a creamy pasta with chickpeas. A few minutes from the end, remove the garlic; add the salt, the ladle of chickpeas set aside and another handful of chopped parsley. Turn and finish cooking. Serve it hot!
