Ingredients
- 5 oz Ditalini pasta
- 1.5 cups Chickpeas
- 1 tsp Rosemary
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Steps
- Heat the olive oil in a deep pot over medium heat.
- Sizzle the sliced garlic and rosemary 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
- Add the chickpeas and broth; bring to a boil.
- Mash about a third of the chickpeas against the side of the pot — this thickens the broth naturally.
- Stir in the ditalini and simmer 10–12 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is tender.
- Add splashes of water if it gets too thick; it should be brothy, not dry.
- Season boldly with salt and pepper; finish with a thread of olive oil.
