Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 ounces carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4″ thick half-moons
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 pounds zucchini, diced
3 cups cooked chickpeas (preferably home-cooked; can also use two 15 ounce cans, drained and rinsed - use ones that are tender, not snappy)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried mint (yes, you can open up a mint teabag)
1 teaspoon ras el hanout (optional, I didn't have this but added Harissa)
1/4 teaspoon Aleppo pepper (or more to taste; can substitute cayenne or chili flakes)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon minced preserved lemon (see NYT for simple recipe on how to make substitute)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Optional garnish: flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • 1.Place the carrots in a small, loosely-covered microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until beginning to soften, about 90 seconds. 2.Place the oil in your largest skillet or a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Saute the zucchini until it is tender. Add the carrots and all of the remaining ingredients (chickpeas, salt, cinnamon, cumin, mint, ras el hanout, Aleppo pepper, tomato paste, preserved lemon, and lemon juice). Add 1/2 cup water and mix thoroughly. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. 3.Taste and adjust seasoning. It will probably need more salt, and you may want to amp up the spices, depending on your taste. Serve hot, garnishing with parsley if you desire.

This tangine is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The zucchini is hidden in the sauce and the chickpeas are a good source of protein.
