@coriander by real coffee do you mean home-brewed or like a black coffee from Dunkin
@aescling i don't see anything was this toot followers-only
@vaporeon_ oops lol
@vaporeon_ a pound of pasta is the size of a typical box of spaghetti
1 heaping tbsp of tomato paste is good. Although I have a squeeze tube of tomato paste and just measure with my heart
Mozzarella is good. Parmesan and Pecorino are also good. Anything you would serve with ordinary pasta
Chickpeas are not replaceable here, the texture they get when you mash them gives the pasta a cheesy texture that would be hard to replicate with other proteins (when cat saw the resulted she thought I made a mac and cheese recipe!). They are sometimes called Garbanzo beans which is a synonym for chickpea (oh wait you live in Germany so that shouldn't be an issue)
I would be extremely surprised if you couldn't find chickpeas because they are very common out here but maybe Germany is different. I can always find them in the aisle when I find cans of other beans. @Breakfast can you comment on the availability of chickpeas?
@vaporeon_ I didn't mention to season with salt and black pepper but you should do that at some point
@vaporeon_ it's super filling ![]()
@vaporeon_ this recipe is called "pasta e ceci" which is Italian for "pasta and chickpeas"
@vaporeon_ no they cook in the water you added to the chickpeas
They will soak up a lot of the water and the result won't be soupy, especially if you mash some of the chickpeas with a wooden spoon or potato mashed before adding the noodles
1) put oil to large skillet or pot
2) add a sprig of thyme and two drained cans of chickpeas. stir for a couple minutes
3) add some tomato paste and stir.
4) add 6 cups of water and bring to a boil
5) add a pound of some small pasta, or spaghetti noodles broken into small pieces
6) stir periodically so noodles don't stick to bottom
7) serve with cheese and red pepper flakes
@vaporeon_ ohhhhhhh trans is short for transparent
