Chick, chick... but it's not chicken


By Baker's corner...somewhere in my kitchen (Visit website)





Here's my family's favourite soup of all times. We all like it and there never seem to be enough. In fact, I should be making bigger quantity, because there's hardly enough for 3 people, although the recipe says "4 servings". So we always end up stealing a few spoons from each other's plates.
It's definitely comforting, delicious and creamy. And the vegetables add a touch of freshness, so absolutely don't omit those.
Legumes are a good source of proteins and a valid substitution for meat, so whenever I can, I try to add them on the menu.

What's your favourite legume?




CHICKPEA CREAM SOUP

240 g precooked chickpea
1 small onion
1 potato
1 rosemary twig
1 litre vegetable stock
4 tablespoons EVOO
salt and pepper
80-100 g small pasta (this one is called ricciutelli, but you can use tubettini or any other that you like)
1 zucchini
5-6 cherry tomatoes

This is a close up of ricciutelli or "curlies".

Chop finely the onion, drain the chickpeas from their liquid, peel and dice the potato. Mince very finely the rosemary leaves - I always use my mezzaluna for that.

Sautè the onion with 3 tablespoons of oil at medium low heat until translucent.

Add the chickpeas, the potato and rosemary. Stirfry for a minute or two.

Add the vegetable stock and cook half covered for 30-40 minutes. In the meantime enjoy the good smell coming out of the pot.

Purée everything in a blender and then put back into the pot.

Add the pasta, salt and pepper to your taste, and let everything simmer until the pasta is cooked but stirring or it will stick to the bottom.

Slice the zucchini and stirfry with 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the tomatoes cut in half or in four if they are big,

stirfry for 3 more minutes.

Pour the soup into bowls and add some zucchini and tomatoes on top.

KREM JUHA OD SLANUTKA

Odli?na juhica koju obo?ava cijela moja obitelj.
Recept ka?e da je ovo koli?ina za 4 osobe, ali vjerujte mi, trebate li nahraniti 4 odrasle osobe, udvostru?ite je.
Povr?e je izuzetno ukusan i osvje?avaju?i kontrast slanutku, pa ga nikako nemojte izostaviti.

240 g kuhanog slanutka
1 mala glavica crvenog luka
1 krumpir
1 gran?ica ruzmarina
1 litra temeljca (juhe) od povr?a
4 ?lice maslinovog ulja
sol i papar
80-100 g tjestenine malog formata
1 tikvica
5-6 raj?ica (tre?njica)

Ocijedite slanutak. Luk sitno nasjeckajte, a krumpir ogulite i nare?ite na kockice. Odvojite listi?e ruzmarina s gran?ice i jako sitno nasjeckajte.
Popr?ite luk na 3 ?lice ulja da postane staklast. Dodajte slanutak, krumpir i ruzmarin. Kratko popr?ite sve skupa mije?aju?i, pa dodajte juhu, poklopite i kuhajte oko 30-40 minuta.
Kad je sve kuhano, izmiksajte ili propasirajte, pa vratite opet u lonac i dodajte tjesteninu.
Po potrebi dodajte soli i papra, i kuhajte mije?aju?i da ne prione za dno.
Tikvicu nare?ite na listi?e, a raj?ice na pola ili na ?etiri dijela.
Popr?ite tikvicu na 1 ?lici ulja. Dodajte raj?ice i kuhajte skupa jo? 3 minute.
Sipajte juhu u tanjure i u svaki dodajte tikvice i raj?ice.

CREMA DI CECI

Ho trovato questa ricetta un paio di anni fa sulla confezione di Ricciutelli Barilla.
Ho cambiato solo le quantità, diminuendo la pasta e aumentando i ceci e il brodo. Altrimenti non sarebbe una crema, ma piuttosto la pasta con un po' di crema.
Posso dire solo che è davvero deliziosa e gustosa, con zucchine e pomodorini che danno quel tocco di freschezza alla fine.
Vi auguro buon inizio d'autunno.

Ingredienti:
240 g di ceci precotti
1 cipolla piccola
1 patata
1 rametto di rosmarino
4 cucchiai di olio EVO
1 litro di brodo vegetale
sale, pepe
80-100 g di ricciutelli (o un altro formato simile)
1 zucchina
5-6 pomodorini

Tagliate finemente la cipolla e rosolatela con 3 cucchiai di olio. Unite i ceci, il rosmarino tritato e la patata tagliata a pezzetti.
Unite il brodo e lasciate cuocere coperto per circa 30-40 minuti.
Passate il tutto nel mixer. Cuocete la pasta nella crema.
Tagliate la zucchina a listarelle fini e cuocetela in padella con un cucchiaio di olio. Unite i pomodorini tagliati a metà o in quattro e cuocete per 3 minuti.
Versate la crema nei piatti e guarnite con zucchine e pomodorini.
