Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise, then into 1/4-inch half-moons. Roughly chop cilantro. Cut each piece of naan into 8 equal wedges. Using a strainer, rinse lentls until water runs clear.
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1⁄2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then zucchini. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 3-4 min. Remove the pan from heat, then transfer zucchini to a plate.
Heat the same pot over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 min. Add garlic puree, Harissa Spice Blend and 2 tsp Moroccan Spice Blend (dbl for 4 ppl). Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec.
Add lentils, crushed tomatoes, broth concentrate and 2 cups water (3 1/2 cups for 4 ppl) to the same pot. Bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until lentils soften, 12-15 min. Add zucchini. Cook, stirring often, until heated through, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. (TIP: If you prefer a more brothy stew, add extra water, 1/4 cup at a time!)
While stew simmers, add naan wedges, remaining Moroccan Spice Blend and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer. Bake naan wedges in the middle of the oven until golden-brown and crispy, 4-5 min.
Divide stew between bowls, then sprinkle feta and cilantro over top. Serve spiced naan wedges alongside for dunking.
