1
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and rosemary sprigs, and sauté for about 7 minutes, or until onion has softened.
2
Add minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 30 seconds. Then, stir in the chunky tomato concasse. Remove rosemary sprigs after about 3 to 5 minutes.
3
Add rinsed chickpeas to the pot. Use a fork or a potato masher to lightly mash some of the chickpeas. This will lend a thicker texture to the soup.

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. After the soup starts boiling, add the dry pasta and let it cook for about 7 to 9 minutes.

Season the soup with freshly ground black pepper.
