Down and Dirty Pasta e Ceci

Ingredients
2 cloves garlic
4 fillets anchovies
4 ripe plum tomatoes
3 healthy sprigs rosemary
salt and pepper
1 can chick peas
4 cups chicken broth (better) or water
1/2 packet small pasta, like farfalle
3 tablespoons olive oil
grated parmesan

Preparation steps
Dice garlic. Cut up anchovies, roughly chop tomatoes.
Over medium heat, saute garlic, anchovies and two rosemary sprigs until the anchovies are melted.
Add chopped tomatoes. Sautee 10 or 15 minutes, till the tomatoes are fully cooked. Salt as needed.
Increase heat and add can of chick peas, with water in the can, and a few cups of boiling water or heated chicken broth. Add last sprig of rosemary. Bring to soft boil.
Add pasta. The liquid should just barely cover the pasta. Reduce heat to healthy simmer and cook till one minute less than the package recommends. Add water or broth if needed. But remember, the broth should be thick, so add the least amount of liquid possible that still allows the pasta to cook.
When the pasta is done -- to my taste less done than usual -- spoon into bowls. Add grated parmesan, ground pepper and a few drops of good olive oil. Perfect.

Pasta with Asparagus and Zucchini

Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
sea salt
4 small zucchini, 2 diced and 2 grated
3 garlic cloves, grated or finely chopped
1 bunch thin asparagus spears, trimmed and stalks cut into 3 pieces each
1/4 cup dry white wine
1–2 tsp capers, rinsed and chopped
zest of 1 lemon
12oz (350g) dry penne pasta or other tube-shaped pasta
handful of flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
Parmesan cheese, grated, to serve
Preparation steps
Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the onion and a pinch of salt, and cook over low heat for 5 minutes or until soft and translucent. Add all the zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until it has cooked down and softened. Don’t allow it to brown.
Stir in the garlic and asparagus. Add the wine, raise the heat, and allow to boil for 2–3 minutes, then return to a simmer. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the asparagus softens, then remove from the heat and stir in the capers and lemon zest. For a creamier sauce, add a splash of cream once the wine cooks down, during the final minutes of cooking.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling, salted water for 10 minutes or until it is tender but still has a bit of bite to it. Drain, reserving a tiny amount of the cooking water. Return the pasta to the pot with the reserved cooking water and toss together. Add the zucchini mixture and parsley, then toss again. Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.
