Meanwhile, finely chop the zucchini and fry briefly. Add the passata and simmer on low heat. Season to taste. Just before the end, add the dash of cream and the chickpeas. Bring to a boil briefly and then remove from the heat. Drain the pasta and toss briefly in olive oil. Serve the pasta and sauce in a deep dish and garnish with crumbled feta cheese.
