Place the chopped garlic, parsley, peppers and carrots in a food processor and finely chop.
Add the vegetable mixture to the pan and sauté for 10 minutes. Add the turmeric and pepper.
Place the chickpeas in the food processor and grind until they have a texture similar to rice (be careful not to puree them).
Add the chickpeas and quinoa to the pan. You can add a little oil if necessary and stir a little.
After 1 minute, add 1.5 cups of water (or broth), bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until all the liquid is absorbed (between 12 and 15 minutes).
