Ingredients:

Serving

1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 dried chili
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 onion, minced
1 tbsp 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 cooking water reserved)

Directions:

Place all but 1/4 cup of the chickpeas in a food processor or blender, add one cup of water and process until smooth.
Heat the olive oil with the chili pepper and the garlic in a one quart saucepan.
Add the onion, parsley, basil and bay leaf; cook, stirring, about five minutes over medium heat.
Add the whole chickpeas, tomatoes, salt and pepper; bring to a boil and simmer over low heat, covered, for thirty minutes, stirring at least every ten minutes.
Add water if liquid reduces too much.
Discard the bay leaf.
When ready to serve, transfer the hot chickpea sauce to a heated bowl large enough to comfortably hold all the pasta.
Dilute the sauce with 1/4 cup of pasta cooking water and fold in pasta.
Serve and pass parmigiana and the grater.
