Hazırlanışı

1. Place the chickpeas in a large bowl, cover with water by at least an inch and soak overnight. The next day, drain the water from the chickpeas and place them in a pot with the celery, carrot, onion, tomatoes, garlic, half the parsley, and bay leaves and cover with fresh water by at least an inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer and cook until the beans are tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. You may need to add water to keep them covered by at least an inch of liquid as the beans cook and begin to absorb the water. While the beans are cooking begin the pasta. Dissolve the salt in the water. Place the semolina flour in a bowl and stir in enough water to create a dough that sticks together. You may need a little additional water, or even a little extra flour if needed. Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for 3 to 5 minutes or until the dough is smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 30 minutes to an hour. Once the dough has rested, work with half at a time and using the rolling machine start at the widest setting and continue until you reach the #5 setting. If rolling by hand, using a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface, roll the dough until it is about 1/4 of an inch thick. Cut the dough into 1/3 to 12 of an inch strips and let dry 15 to 30 minutes on a drying rack or on clean towels. In a heavy saucepan, heat olive oil to about 1 inch deep. Cut about 1/3 of your prepared pasta strips in half. Heat the oil and once it is very hot fry the strips in batches until they are lightly browned and crisp. Place the fried strips on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil. Continue to fry the rest of the cut strips in this manner. Once the chickpeas are tender, add the remaining parsley and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add enough water to ensure the water level is about 1 inch above the level of the chickpeas, and then stir in the remaining pasta (the 2/3 pasta not fried) into the pot with the chickpeas, stirring to mix well. Cook until the pasta is " ". Serve the piping hot pasta with chickpeas in four individual bowls, topping each with a portion of the fried pasta strips as well as some cracked black pepper and grated cheese.
