Toss the zucchini in olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon Aleppo pepper, 1 teaspoon of cumin and 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika.
Roast the zucchini in the oven on a parchment lined sheet for 15 minutes at 400 or in the air fryer for 6 minutes at 400.
In a sauce pan, sauté the onion and garlic with ginger, cumin paprika and salt in olive oil for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the quinoa and veggie stock. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for 3-5 minutes until the quinoa pops. Add 2 tablespoons of harissa and stir in.
Combine the zucchini and quinoa in bowls, top with a generous dollop of Labneh and a fried egg, sprinkle with za'atar and cilantro leaves and serve.
