In a large pan or Dutch oven heat the olive oil and add the finely chopped onion. Sprinkle with some sea salt and saut\u00c3\u00a9 on low for about 10-15 minutes until just caramelizing. Add the garlic, carrots, rosemary, parsley, sage and celery and continue to cook for another 5 minutes making sure the vegetables don’t burn. Add the spices and chickpeas and stir well. Add the tomatoes and enough water to cover the vegetables and chickpeas and stir in a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese. Bring to a boil, turn down to a simmer and cover.
