Drain, reserving the cooking liquid, and rinse the pasta in cold water. Set aside.Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium or large saucepan. When hot, add the onion to the pot and saut for 5 minutes or until softened. Add the carrot and saut for another few minutes. Now add the garlic and chilies, and continue to saut for another minute.Add the cumin, coriander, turmeric and amchoor powder if using, stir for another minute, and then add the tomato. Simmer for a few minutes and then add the herbs and 1 1/4 cups of the reserved pasta cooking liquid. Simmer for another few minutes and then add the peas. Simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes, and then add the chickpeas and pasta. Simmer for another 5 to 7 minutes, adding more water if necessary to achieve desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper and serve with crusty bread or just as is. It's wonderful served at room temperature or slightly warmed. I sprinkled the bowl with some nutritional yeast, but feel free to sprinkle some fresh grated Parmesan overtop if you enjoy cheese.
