Preparation
Start the curry
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Halve the zucchini lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise. In a large, high-sided pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add ⅔ of the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the zucchini and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften; season with ½ the spices and S&P. Add the tomato sauce and ⅓ cup water (double for 4 portions). Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 min., until combined.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, roughly chop the cilantro leaves and stems. In a small bowl, microwave the remaining garlic, 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and S&P, in 15 sec. increments, until melted.
Finish the curry & cook the shrimp
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with the remaining spices and S&P. To the pan of curry, add the cream and shrimp. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until partially cooked. Add the spinach and cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the shrimp* are opaque and cooked through and the spinach has wilted. Add ⅔ of the cilantro and 1 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions); stir well.
Make the garlic naan
Toast the naan directly on an oven rack, 4 to 6 min., until slightly crispy and warmed through. Transfer to a cutting board and brush with the garlic butter. Once cool enough, cut into wedges.
Plate your dish
Divide the curry between your bowls. Garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve the garlic naan on the side. Bon appétit!
