Instructions
Put the oil, onion and carrots in a large heavy pot. Turn the heat to medium and cook until the vegetables are softened, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic, chili and herbs to the pot and cook about 1 minute, until fragrant. Stir in the tomatoes, chickpeas, pasta, water and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, then immediately lower the heat to a slow simmer. Partially cover the pot and cook until the pasta is done, which should take 10-12 minutes. Stir once or twice to make sure the pasta isn't sticking to the bottom of the pan. Taste for seasoning, and add more salt, chili or freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir the cheese and parsley into the soup and serve.View original recipe
