Method
Start by pouring a drizzle of oil into a frying pan, adding the chickpeas with salt, pepper and breadcrumbs.
Sauté for a few minutes and set the chickpeas aside.
In the same pan, sauté 1/4 of the onion.
Add the cleaned and roughly chopped cauliflower and a glass of water.
Cook until the cauliflower is soft and tender.
Season with salt and pepper.
Add the grated cheese and blend until smooth.
Cook the fusilli in boiling salted water for 9 minutes, as indicated on the package.
Drain the pasta a couple of minutes early and pour it into a pan with the cream, adding a bit of cooking water to make it creamy.
Top with the chickpeas and serve hot.
