Gluten Free Garbanzo Bean Pasta Recipes

GLUTEN FREE GARBANZO BEAN PASTA

Steps:

• Except for the water, place all ingredients in a food processor.
• Process until the mixture starts to form a ball.
• If mixture is not fully hydrated, add 1 Tablespoon of water and pulse a few times.
• Wrap your dough with plastic wrap and set aside to rest for at least 30 minutes.
• Cut your dough into 6 equal pieces.
• Roll each piece of dough into a rectangle using the extra Garbanzo flour to prevent sticking. Try to roll the dough as thin as possible; this should not be difficult if the dough is well rested.
• Using a pizza cutter and ruler as a guide, cut each piece of dough lengthwise into strips ½" wide.
• Create a nest with the noodles of each piece of dough.
• The nests may now be frozen or refrigerated until ready to use.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook noodles 4-7 (if frozen) minutes. Drain and toss with olive oil to prevent sticking.

PASTA WITH GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, celery, garlic and bay leaf; sauté until onion is golden and tender, about 7 minutes. Add 3 1/4 cups broth, garbanzo beans, tomato paste and crushed red pepper. Bring to boil. Add macaroni; reduce heat to medium and boil gently until macaroni is very tender, adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if mixture is dry, about 15 minutes (mixture will be thick but some broth should remain). Season with salt and pepper. Discard bay leaf. Stir in parsley and 1 tablespoon oil.
• Ladle pasta mixture into 4 bowls. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
