Just made this for tea with some homemade bread, it's basically a Jamie Oliver recipe but actual amounts don't seem to matter much & it tastes sooo much better than its constituent parts.
2 tins of chickpeas or equivalent dried/soaked/cooked which I did - save the cooking water
large onion chopped small
2 sticks of celery chopped small
2 pints or thereabouts of stock made with Marigold vegtable bullion [use cooking liquid if poss]
large sprig of rosemary chopped
garlic chopped [much as you like]
couple of handfulls of small pasta
sweat the vegtables in olive oil, add the chickpeas & stock, simmer for 20 mins then remove some into a bowl & blitz the contents of the pan. Put the whole veggies back & chuck in the pasta, simmer for another 15 mins or until the pasta is soft. Enjoy!
Cor blimey marymary, that sounds great, just what we need in this cold, snowy weather! ;D
